Fig + Vanilla Sidecar

September 11, 2017 by Natalie Leave a Comment

Bonjour everyone! If you’re reading this, I’m probably touching down in France right about now. To celebrate my trip to France with Pierre Ferrand, I’ve made a delicious variation on one of my favorite Cognac classics and have come up with a Fig + Vanilla Sidecar. Like most classic cocktails, the exact origin of this drink remains slightly unclear. The first recipe appeared in 1922, in Harry MacElhone’s “Harry’s ABC of Mixing Cocktails” and Robert Vermeire’s “Cocktails and How to Mix Them”. In MacElhone’s book, he cites the inventor as Pat MacGarry, a popular bartender at the Buck’s Club in London, but later cites himself. Vermiere states that it was MacGarry as well. I’m putting my money on Pat MacGarry!…

  • Happy Galentine’s to all my ladies out there! I don’t know where I would be without the amazing gals that are by my side everyday. I can’t thank you all enough for putting up with my shit, getting endless amounts of drinks/eating copious amounts of pizza with me, letting me call you on the telephone, not thinking I’m crazy for sending you 1000x texts (you probably think I’m crazy), and for allowing me to cry sometimes, laugh a lot, and for having impromptu dance parties. Tag a lady below who is always by your side. I wish every night was ladies night. 💖 #GalentinesDay

  • I know it’s very silly but Valentine’s Day has always been one of my favorite holidays. In the past, I’ve been known to go to the top of the Empire State Building on 2/14. Who can guess why? Flashback to a Valentine’s Day shoot in my old studio with @karmaflowers. 💖

  • Make something sweet this weekend! These Strawberry Daiquiri Cupcakes that I made for @palmspringsstyle are one of my favorite boozy treats of all time. Eating a few of these while binge watching Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan rom coms is totally acceptable, right? But who’s doing that? Not me (also me: 💯🙋🏼‍♀️). Snag the recipe by visiting the link in my bio.  #ALboozytreats #ALonmyplate

  • I will always be yours my sweet Negroni. Negroni Mini Cupcakes in the archives — perfect for a Valentine’s or Galentine’s Day treat. I’m voting for Galentine’s. 😉 #ALboozytreats #ALonmyplate
