Jelly Belly – Cocktail Classics!
I know you want to buy them right now — and you can, for just $2.45 per bag (update: sadly this product is no longer available).
While this cleverly designed Cocktail Shaker (designed by William Kellogg) has no affiliation with pop artist Mr. Brainwash, anyone who’s familiar with that artist’s giant spray paint can sculptures will certainly draw an instant comparison. And with the popularity of the documentary film Exit Through the Gift Shop that might just be good for sales! Designed to look like an actual can of spray paint, this stainless steel mixer features a faux Krylon logo on its white exterior, and comes with a decorative red plastic cap that covers a non-operational nozzle. Holds 14 ounces of delicious beverage fluid: enough to get you and a friend fully crocked.

February 22nd is National Margarita Day, in case no one hipped you to that fact. Also, did you have any idea that the Margarita is the Number 1 cocktail drink in the US? I sure didn’t, as I am a Martini gal, myself. Still, I am not adverse to the occasional frozen fruit margarita (peach or mango being my favorite varieties) when the occasion presents itself. The recipe below might be a fun one to try out while relaxing at home this evening, and you don’t even need a blender! Ole!
Grapefruit Margarita
Total prep time: 10 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
Wedge of lime
2 teaspoons coarse margarita salt
14 ounces ruby red grapefruit juice, with pulp (about 3 medium grapefruits)
1 ounce lime juice
5 ounces reposado tequila
2 ounces triple sec
4 slices grapefruit or twists
1. Run a lime wedge halfway around the rims of four margarita glasses and dip into salt. Set aside.
2. Combine 7 ounces grapefruit juice, one-half ounce lime juice, 2 1/2 ounces tequila and 1 ounce triple sec in a cocktail shaker. Shake over ice until chilled. Strain into two ice-filled, salt-rimmed margarita glasses.
3. Garnish with a twist or slice of grapefruit. Repeat to make two more cocktails.
