NEW YEARS EVE COCKTAIL NourishAndInspireMe

nourishinspiremeDecember 27, 2014October 27, 2022

It’s been such an amazing year! We released our first 2 ebooks, shared some gorgeous recipes, took some beautiful photos and collaborated with some amazing people including Greatist, Nourish Melbourne, Hello Natural, Healthful Pursuit, In Sonnet’s Kitchen and more! We loved every minute of it and look forward to what’s to come for us in 2015. I can tell you we’re working on a recipe ebook called, “Easy Eats” and so far it’s looking amazing! There will be gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo-friendly, vegan, dairy-free and refined sugar-free recipes, so stay tuned for that one!

I do believe in balance and having a good time, so i’ll be celebrating this New Years Eve with a few beverages. Pina Colada is my favourite cocktail or you could even make it a mocktail and omit the alcohol,l but i like a little grey goose in mine, although traditionally you use rum, but I have bad memories of rum so i steer clear!

I’ve added a little twist to my pina colada recipe and it’s got a bit of zing to it!! GINGER! It’s no secret ginger and coconut are 2 of my favourite flavours and they both go perfectly with pineapple so i’m loving this combo!

If you can, make this cocktail with freshly cold pressed pineapple you’re all the better for it! The bottled stuff is not really healthy, it’s sugary water and doesn’t have the live enzymes or goodness that fresh cold-pressed juice has to offer. You could also add a little cinnamon to the mix if you’re currently in the season of winter to warm this drink up a little, plus it’s going to help stabilise your blood sugar levels.

The addition of coconut water in this cocktail will assist in hydration. As you know, alcohol is very dehydrating, so coconut water will provide some much needed natural electrolytes, Of course the general rule goes, 1 glass of water for every alcoholic drink you have.

Anyway, i hope you enjoy this recipe and I wish all of you the best in 2015. Hope you come back to visit us! Stay well and we’ll see you in the New Year!
