Anyone else got strong love for Meyer Lemons this time of year? Or rosemary for that matter? I love the subtle hint of rosemary that shines through in this Meyer Lemon and Rosemary Tom Collins. The rosemary pairs nicely with the gin and the Meyer Lemon gives that bright citrus flavour that we all love in a Tom Collins.

And this week I need a cocktail BAD. 3 sick kids means I’m completely out of the swing of daily life and work. I barely have time to shower let alone get much else done. One of these cocktails is sure to ease the pain … even just a bit. It’s mid-week, but I can’t wait for Friday!

This cocktail is seasonal and festive without being too Christmasy. Not like this Easy Bourbon Eggnog I posted recently, which I adore, but it is a very Christmasy. I do want to see more of these Blood Orange Mimosas this year. I’m hoping I can juice enough blood oranges for a party soon.

Not interested in cocktails, but love Meyer Lemons? Try this Lazy Girl’s Meyer Lemon Tart. These bars also look super dreamy. Meyer Lemons have a great flavour that’s a cross between lemon and oranges. They’re just sweet enough.
