Heat oven to 375°F. Make and bake drop cookies as directed on pouch. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. In food processor, process half of the cookies to coarse crumbs. Remove to medium bowl. Continue to process remaining cookies to coarse crumbs; add to bowl. Stir in melted butter until well blended.

Tequila Sunrise
Ingredients
2 ounces (4 tablespoons) tequila
4 ounces (1/2 cup) orange juice
3/4 ounce (1-1/2 tablespoons) grenadine syrup (purchased or homemade)
Ice (try our clear ice!)
For the garnish: Cocktail cherry, orange slice
Directions (Cocktail)
Fill a highball glass with ice. Pour in the tequila and orange juice and stir. Pour the grenadine into center of the drink and it will sink to the bottom. Stir gently for sunrise gradient effect. Garnish with an orange slice and cocktail cherry. This drink is sweetly straightforward. If you are a fan of sour cocktails, add a squeeze of lime to add more of a tart flavor. A dash of orange liqueur like Cointreau can give it a little more complexity. You can also make a Tequila Sunset by substituting blackberry brandy for the grenadine. Make the drink with vodka for a Vodka Sunset, or try a Malibu Sunset using Malibu Coconut Rum. Here’s the key to how to make a good tequila sunrise: buy a good tequila! A cocktail is only as good as the alcohol you use. Look for a mid-price range tequila, since the price is typically an indicator of quality. You can use either tequila blanco (“new or not aged) or tequila reposado (aged) in this cocktail recipe. Since it’s a pretty straightforward beachy drink, we went with tequila blanco here. But, it would be even more interesting with tequila reposado: it adds subtle notes of vanilla and oak.

This is a 2 ingredient dough (made famous by Weight Watchers YEARS ago) that is super versatile! Use it for your pizza crust, to make bagels, to make Naan, soft pretzels, cinnamon rolls, pop-tarts, biscuits, etc. It goes together super quick, and it has endless possibilities. We recently used it as the base for a BBQ chicken pizza... I got 2 thumbs up from Russ, as he was too busy eating to actually say anything! Check out the show notes for the link to several recipes using it!
Ingredients
1 3/4 cups self-rising flour
1 cup Greek
Directions
Sift your self-rising flour if it is clumpy! In a large mixing bowl, combine your flour with yogurt and mix well. Using your hands, press into the dough and form a ball shape.
I'm a fan of Mojitos, and this one sounds perfect for summer days!
Ingredients
8-10 raspberries
1 lime, chopped into large chunks
2 tsp granulated sugar
2 mint sprigs, leaves picked
Ice
4oz white rum
Sparkling water, to serve
Directions (Cocktail)
Divide the raspberries, lime and sugar between two tall glasses and muddle by gently crushing with a muddler or the end of a bar spoon. The fruits should start to release their juices, which will mix with the sugar. Put half the mint leaves in the palm of one of your hands, then clap the other hand on top of the leaves – this bruises them just enough to release their flavour. Drop the bruised mint leaves into one of the glasses, then repeat with the remaining mint, dropping it into the second glass. Add a handful of ice to each glass, followed by the rum. Stir, then top up with sparkling water. Stir briefly until just combined, then serve.

Heaven's Door Straight Bourbon
Description
Heaven’s Door Straight Bourbon Whiskey is distilled and aged in Tennessee, for a minimum 6 years in new American oak barrels. The sour mash distillation process and non-chill filtered bottling allows this mature whiskey to remain consistent, as well as creating reliable flavor profiles that come from being aged in single story warehouses. The Heaven's Door Bourbon is distilled and aged from a partner distillery in Tennessee. This Whiskey is a true Bourbon, not a Tennessee Whisky, which means this product did not undergo charcoal mellowing, also known as the Lincoln County Process.
