Continue ReadingFor Partying Just the Right Amount If you want to celebrate but you’re worried about the morning after, this Mardi Gras Hurricane Mocktail could be just the ticket. I have never been a huge fan of the whole Mardi Gras food culture. I think it is because I don’t eat shrimp or any shellfish really for that mater. But who can resist a well crafted Hurricane Cocktail? I love how pretty it is and how it is sweet without being cloying. I gave up drinking about 5 months ago to help heal some gut issues I was having. Therefore, I…

Nikki “Southern At Heart” calls herself the Coffee Queen, and after trying this recipe, I have to agree that she is, in fact, a Queen.
