Golden hour in a glass ✨🍯🌼

The Abuela’s Knees from is the kind of cocktail you accidentally finish way too fast. Chamomile-infused , orange blossom honey, and fresh lemon come together for a soft, floral take on a Bee’s Knees that feels equal parts cozy and refreshing.

Big love to our friends at Goldie’s Gin for always making Maine cocktails shine 🍸

Just over the border and completely worth the drive.

might be one of the most intimate and thoughtfully curated experiences I’ve had in a long time.

Husband and wife duo Spenser and Amanda are doing something really special inside the historic Edward Smith Building, blending Portuguese-inspired flavors, farm-to-table dishes, house-made wines, and their own “Ludo” vermouth and amaro program into one unforgettable experience.

The Ludo Martini? Unreal.
Beefeater, Tamworth Gin, Ludo Extra Dry, Dolin Blanc, salt, lemon twist… and yes, you can make it a Gibson with Portuguese onions.

Tiny space. Huge heart. Save this one for your next special night out.

If you know me, you know I will never pass up an espresso martini ☕️🍸🔥

And the Hot Honey Espresso Martini at immediately moved to the top of my list. Made with , Kahlua, Claw Coffee Roasters cold espresso, simple syrup, and topped with the dreamiest hot honey cold foam.

Sweet, spicy, smooth, caffeinated… basically everything I want in a cocktail.

It’s giving “I’ll just have one” energy and we all know that’s a lie.

If spring won’t show up, we will 🌴

We’ll be inside at Pacifico pretending we’re somewhere tropical with the No Sabo Kid- espresso, coconut vodka, Licor 43, and zero interest in the weather outside.

Have you been to yet?

A snowy, dreary start to March calls for a cozy stop at one of my favorite go-to spots, .

I popped in this morning for a vanilla latte and it arrived bright and cheerful- totally Cuties-coded and making the chilly morning feel a little warmer.

This place is always so inviting. The staff are beyond amazing, and it’s always the perfect little refuge on a cold Portland, Maine morning.

Also, shoutout to my childhood bestie Kristen, whose favorite color was orange- seeing it everywhere like this always makes me think of her. 🧡

GOOᗪ ᗰOᖇᑎIᑎG ᑕᑌTIEᔕ!

Start your Friday off with a little kick in the back of the throat. 🩸 🔥

’s Best Bloody is here to wake you up properly -vodka or tequila (I’m a vodka girl, always), loaded up and made SPICY if you can handle it.

Savory, bold, and just the right amount of bad behavior before noon.

Brunch with a little coastal attitude.

The Foghorn Mary at Old Port Sea Grill brings the flavor with Wiggly Bridge Touché Vodka, their signature house Bloody mix, and a chef’s-choice oyster that makes every sip feel like the Maine coast in a glass.

Bold, briny, and exactly how a proper Bloody should be.

Settle in with one today while catching the Olympic Opening Ceremonies starting at 2pm- cocktails and the Games make a perfect pairing.

Fresh-squeezed pineapple juice + coconut cream = tropical, balanced, and 𝙕𝙀𝙍𝙊 proof.
Perfect for Dry January or anyone skipping the booze but not the vibe.

Soft opening sips at Aomori ✨
Honored to be here tonight checking out Portland’s newest Japanese spot in West Bayside.

Currently drinking the Kappa 🍸 featuring gin, umeshu, cucumber, shiso, and yuzu. Light, refreshing, and dangerously easy to drink. Clean flavors, perfectly balanced, and such a great intro to their cocktail program.

Aomori opens to the public Monday, December 8, and if this drink is any indication, you’ll want to get here soon.

Meet your new fall crush: Blush and Burn from Serrano-infused sake brings the fire, cranberry and lemon cool it down, and rosemary ties it all together. Dangerously drinkable.
