I am so excited to share with you that I am finally creating content for YouTube, and my first video went live today! Watch today’s recipe below.
To celebrate we’re making a recipe from my first cookbook, Chicano Eats: Recipes from my Mexican American Kitchen, for a cocktail that I like to call La Cuba. Quite a few recipes in the book are inspired by different family members, and la Cuba is essentially my dad’s take on the traditional Mexican Paloma.
Did you know that the Paloma is Mexico’s national cocktail, and not the margarita?
Two weeks ago, I harvested the very last passion fruits from my vine, and today, we’re using them to make these pineapple passion fruit mojitos!
Before we get started, if you haven’t pre-ordered Chicano Bakes yet, books are currently 20% off over at Target through the 24th (and if you have a RED Card, you can get an extra 5% off too). If you happen to pre-order the book, make sure to keep the receipt because I have an incentive I’ll be sharing with folks who pre-order the book.
Today, we’re making a coconut pineapple agua fresca!
As Chicano Bakes wraps up, I’m finding myself with more free time and it’s such a weird feeling! I had purchased a home while I was in the middle of my first cookbook (currently 50% off on Amazon right now!), and a few months later the pandemic hit—and I haven’t stopped working since. For the past two years my husband and I have been holding off on remodeling projects until I was done with the book, and this week, we’re finally starting with our first one, replacing carpet with vinyl flooring. Wish us luck!
I’m keeping it pretty light today with a recipe for a coconut pineapple agua fresca.
