{PinterTest}

This weekend was my birthday and my besties came to PR from The City to help celebrate. We had a wonderful time and we tested a bunch of things! We made:

these - which were AMAZING. All of us were quite disappointed that we didn't buy enough Coronita's for more than one each. They were seriously so good. We put them in beach buckets to be more festive.


these - Which we altered slightly as they were a last minute decision and I didn't have ground ginger or ground red pepper. We added chili flakes and more garlic and omitted the cashews. We served with a homemade peanut sauce and another thai style sauce. SO yummy!

 this - which sucked.

 these - Another one I will make again and again. It was delicious. So easy to make and so easy to drink. We added far more vodka and a couple extra beer than it called for and you still couldn't taste any alcohol. A huge hit with all our guests. (I also got to use my new punch bowl to put it in!)

 these - YUM! I heart mojitos. So summery and they go down quite nicely.

 these - They were good. Very sweet but they were a nice drink to sip on while we were getting ready for our night out. We all only had one and I'm not sure I would have been able to drink a second due to the fact that they were so sweet.

 these - My bestie made these for my bday dessert. They're amazing. I know she used regular limes instead of key limes and her own cream cheese icing but either way they were mouth watering. They were recommended to me by Tasha so I requested them when R asked me what kind of cake I wanted.

I also made these last week for my Father In Law. He has recently become Vegan (not by choice) and was really missing his sweets. I was super surprised by how good they were and how you couldn't taste the beans or anything! You can tell they're Vegan. They're definitely missing the egg and milk etc., but still completely edible (and even enjoyable!).

It's been a busy week of cooking/drinking with Pinterest! What have you been PinterTesting lately?
