Mochi donuts today for National Donut Day from .sd! We tried the churro, mango stick rice, lychee rose and cherry blossom. The little bubbles pull apart easily making mochi donuts perfect for sharing. The lychee rose was beyond delicious and now I’m inspired to work with this flavor combo.

It’s Happy Hour/Margarita Monday!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Spontaneous happy hour has become a thing around here since Covid and I’m always trying something new based on the ingredients at hand. We were already enjoying some chips and salsa and a delicious ice cold marg sounded perfect. We have some little baby Makrut limes on our tree and I thought they’d work well with dragonfruit.

*Makrut Lime can be hard to find, leaves may be your only option. You can find these at most international markets and online. Scroll to see these super fragrant bumpy little limes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Dragonfruit & Makrut Lime Margarita
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1 1/2 oz
1 oz triple sec
1 oz dragonfruit syrup
1/2 oz lime
club soda
Makrut lime zest or leaves
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you have leaves muddle in a cocktail shaker with lime juice and dragonfruit syrup. If not start here: Add tequila, triple sec, dragonfruit syrup and lime to cocktail shaker with ice. Shake well and strain into glass over crushed ice. Top with club soda and some lime zest. Salud!

I’m such a big cake fan but as I’ve gotten older and those gray hairs are starting to become visible my sweet tooth seems to be “maturing”. Gone are the days that I would bake up double chocolate cupcakes; now my bakes consist of citrus, fresh fruit and my jams & preserves. This olive oil citrus cake features my preserved kumquats and their sweet syrup, my home stock of kumquat liqueur and my dried citrus and flower blend. I decided on a vanilla bean whipped cream for frosting but you can do a buttercream or even skip the frosting altogether. Find the recipe on my site, link in bio.

Like most people 2020 and the pandemic just leveled my plans; at first I tried to carry on as almost normal but I quickly realized that wouldn’t work. I took time to gather my thoughts and regroup as well as mind my health and keep clear of the virus. I obviously had a lot of time on my hands so I began to tinker, cook and blend. I found a love for tea blending and I started creating some delicious rubs to put on anything I could get my hands on to put into my new smoker (what a birthday gift!!). With help from my grandma I started my very own nuka for traditional Japanese pickling veggies; I made a some homemade mustard and chili sauces and even tried the sourdough bread craze. From all that I learned so much 1. I enjoy using traditional methods with modern flavors 2. One person can make a surprising number of things and 3. I cannot bake bread, oddly don’t have the patience for the process lol!

This year I started watching with my bestie and decided to start a cocktail project. I wanted to take to personality traits and dominant colors each Queen displayed and translate them with drink ingredients. As such my feed has shifted from primarily jam to other things; so I wanted to take a minute to share what’s going on with . Right now I’m taking a brief hiatus from online sales while I move kitchens and expand my product lines. I’m expanding into baking, teas, making spice blends and so much more.

Moving forward I’ll continue posting the themed cocktail recipes and I’ll work in other recipes as well. I’m also working on doing videos for Reels and TikTok, have themed days, do tutorials and show more of my process. I got an and I’m so excited to not have to bug my hubby to come film me cutting up onions or fold in egg whites 😂 Stay tuned for the next evolution of The Brown Eyed Girls Kitchen Co and thank you for your continued support!

You can’t have pizza night without a little cocktail action. These were definitely made on the fly, we only had one cider left in the fridge and didn’t want to drive out for more. I’m actually a big fan of using ciders and beers in cocktails. With their own range of flavors you can pick what you want to highlight with your other ingredients.

1 can cosmic currant
1.5 oz rum
1 oz Triple sec
4 dashes cardamom bitters
4 dashes grapefruit bitters
4 oz Black currant syrup
Club soda Shake the rum, triple sec, bitters and black currant syrup in a shaker with ice. Strain into a highball glass filled half full with crushed ice. Split the can of cider between the 2 glasses and top with a bit of club soda to break up the sweetness. Garnish with berries.
*I get the black currant syrup from my local Middle Eastern market, you should be able to find similar at any international or specialty market.

It’s been such an odd year for so many of us and some days I just don’t know which way is up. I’ve decided that where I can I will pay a little extra for convenience but still make it mine. Normally for homemade pizza I make fresh dough starting early in the day to get that long proof, resulting in an air bubble filled perfect chew to crispy ratio crust. These days as I recipe test potential new products, research flavors and try to remember to take pics along the way; some meals (almost always breakfast 😬) and often dinner are forgotten about until stomachs are rumbling. These pre-made frozen flatbreads from through came in such handy the other day. I whipped up a quick base sauce with San Marzano tomatoes added garlic sauce to one and added some toppings. One was a house favorite of pepperoni, mozzarella and salami and drizzled with a habanero hot honey I’ve been working on. The other had a marinara & garlic sauce (which I’ll be attempting to make and package soon!) our delicious zucchini sott’olio and goat cheese. I’ve gotta admit, it’s pretty awesome having a slew of condiments and sauces under development because I can always “field test” what I’m working on.

As I continue to evolve I’ll be sharing more cooking moments, recipes, ideas and hopefully even some videos. Stay tuned for some delicious dessert recipes coming up next!

These oro blanco layered grapefruit turned out so beautifully I might just have to bake a cake and cover it in buttercream and decorate with a few slices of these! Olive oil citrus cake will be on the blog this week with my favorite Italian buttercream recipe.

We really felt Elliott with 2 T’s story and hope to see her come out of her she’ll and feel comfortable with herself and the competition. We call this one Take Your Blues Away.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sapphire luster powder
1 oz Hendricks midsummer gin
1 oz Kumquat liqueur
