Baileys Chai Float

I’m completely hooked on chai lattes. We live in the boondocks so we make them at home instead of going to the fancy coffee shop. My grandma got me hooked on this instant chai mix and after making chai floats a while back, I was inspired for a boozy version. I know you are going to love it!

Just take me to the recipe! Scroll all the way to the bottom for the printable recipe card with ingredients and full written directions. Otherwise, read on for cocktail tips and tricks for this easy dessert cocktail.

How to Make a Baileys Chai Float:

• Add instant chai mix to a glass and add hot water (needs to be hot but doesn’t have to be boiling). Stir until mix is completely dissolved.
• Add Baileys Irish Cream and Black Spiced Rum.
• Stir Well.

• Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon. 
• Serve immediately. 

The ice cream will melt down into the chai mixture and it’s sweet, creamy and delicious. Totally satisfying for your sweet tooth. Looks so pretty for entertaining guests too!

Recipe Variation:

You could also add another scoop or two of ice cream and blend this Baileys Chai into a boozy milkshake. Just make sure your chai is cooled. The flavors are absolutely irresistible and perfect for any time of year. 

If you would like to make these without the alcohol, you could use Baileys Coffee Creamers instead. They are delicious without the added liquor. You can also just make a Chai Float with the chai latte mix and add a scoop of ice cream, it’s delicious!

More Dessert Cocktails to Try:

• Dessert cocktails are pretty much my favorite thing these days. Just like the Salted Caramel Mudslide, this boozy float is an easy treat to make after a long day or a fun addition to your party plans. 
• Salted Caramel Guinness Floats are so easy to make and you are not going to believe how delicious they are!
• S’Mores Martinis  are like boozy chocolate milk! Topped off with a toasted marshmallow and the rim is crusted with graham cracker crumbs. A fun adult treat for any s’mores fan.
   
• Pumpkin Spice White Russian  is a favorite for fall parties and holiday get togethers. Simple and incredibly delicious. If you are a pumpkin spice fanatic, this one’s a keeper!
• We made Homemade Baileys a while back and it would make a super fun hostess gift for the holidays. So good in your morning coffee or your favorite dessert cocktail. 

If you love chai, these Chai Latte Glazed Donut Holes are an irresistible treat for the weekend. Made so easily with canned biscuits and a sweet chai glaze.

Where to Buy Instant Chai Latte Mix:

I have found the Mystic Chai Latte Mix at Sam’s Club and Amazon. I’ve found similar brands at the grocery store but I like the bulk containers that Mystic offers.

Piña Colada Mocktails

I’m a big fan of creating family friendly party drinks that everyone can enjoy. When we entertain, it’s always a family affair and I want the kids to enjoy the festivities just as much as the adults.

I always include something tasty like my Easy Party Punch, Pineapple Lemonade  or these simple Piña Colada Mocktails. They can all be made ahead of the party and ready to serve. If you are looking for the traditional cocktail, my Easy Piña Coladas are just as delicious with the addition of rum. 

How to Make Piña Colada Mocktails:

1. Place frozen pineapple chunks, pineapple juice, coconut milk, simple syrup, and lime juice to a blender. 
   Blend until smooth. 
2. Pour into glasses and garnish with fresh pineapple wedges and maraschino cherries if desired. 

Tips for Making Piña Colada Mocktails:

Fresh pineapple can be used instead of frozen. You can serve over ice or add ice to the blender for a frozen mocktail.

I cut my fresh pineapple into chunks and placed them in a baggie and froze them for about 4 hours before I made the drinks. This can be done ahead of time. Frozen pineapple will keep about 3-4 months. 

Make these mocktails ahead and place in a zip top freezer bag and freeze until ready to serve. 

If you are not a fan of coconut, GASP! You can skip the coconut milk and use regular milk or cream in it’s place. 

More Non Alcoholic Drinks and Party Punch Recipes to Try:

Easy Strawberry Limeade Punch  is just 3 ingredients and tastes just like a Sonic drink or maybe even a little better!

Blackberry Lemonade  is one of my favorites for parties and summer barbecues. Sweet and refreshing and made with fresh summer berries. 

Virgin Peach & Raspberry Bellinis are perfect for baby showers, cookouts and weekend brunches. Everyone will love this easy mocktail. 

Summer Berry Punch  is loaded with fresh berries and lemon for a super refreshing drink that will have everyone coming back for more. 

Strawberry Mango Coolers  are bursting with fresh flavors and are super simple to make! A real family favorite. 

Easy Fall Party Punch  is the drink I serve for game day parties and fall holidays. It’s always a hit.

Peach Lemonade

Homemade lemonade is really so simple to make and it’s always refreshing on a hot summer day. When we host cookouts and family get togethers, I love to have drinks that both the kids and adults will enjoy and this Peach lemonade is just the ticket. 

How to Make Peach Lemonade:

1. Start with simple syrup, which is simply equal parts sugar and boiling water mixed until the sugar is dissolved. Allow to cool before mixing up your lemonade.
2. Add fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, peach nectar, water and ginger ale to a pitcher and stir until well combined. Chill until ready to serve. 
3. Serve over ice and garnish with fresh lemon slices. 

What is Peach Nectar?

Peach Nectar is simply the juice of the peach that includes the pulp. Sometimes it will include a bit of citrus and sugar for taste. You can find it in the juice isle of your grocery store. I have found it in cans or in cartons. 

Can you make Peach Lemonade with a Mix?

If you aren’t into juicing lemons and making homemade lemonade, you can still make this Peach lemonade with a mix like Country Time. Just use about 5 cups of prepared lemonade with the peach nectar and ginger ale. 

More Non Alcoholic Drinks to Try:

Easy Party Punch is always a hit and only has 3 ingredients. A classic for birthday parties and holidays. 

Blackberry Lemonade is an easy homemade lemonade made with fresh summer blackberries. A gorgeous addition to any summer gathering. 

Pineapple Lemonade is one of my most requested party drinks and it is super simple to make!

Easy Pineapple Wine Punch

Fruity party drinks are my go- to for parties. You can count on crowd favorites like my Pineapple Margaritas, Strawberry Wine Punch .

This Vodka Party Punch and Strawberry Lemonade Moscato Slushie are also crowd favorites!

I have had this Easy Pineapple Wine Punch on my mind for sometime and just could not find the time to get it made.

I’ve had the ingredients for ages but I guess there’s nothing wrong with having some fun cocktail ingredients on hand just in case the mood strikes!

I am such a procrastinator and I swear I will do better but I can’t seem to change it. I have trouble turning away work when someone needs help and I end up letting my own list go.

It always ends up making me crazy but I guess not enough to do things differently. Sometimes I feel like I need a life coach. Except that I don’t really like the thought of anyone bossing me around.

Most days I’m questioning my sanity and the next I’m dreaming up the next project I want to tackle. The problem comes in when March rolls around and that next project has yet to be the bookwork for taxes. Yikes. When will I ever learn?

I don’t entertain as often as I used to but I still enjoy the whole family getting together for a weekend dinner or cookout. Life gets too busy and anytime I can get the whole clan over for dinner and drinks, it’s a good day.

I am so looking forward to warmer weather and lots of summer cookouts.  We have had about 10 inches of rain in the last week and I’m ready for some sunshine! This Pineapple Wine Punch was just the ticket to bust out of the dreary winter blues and welcome spring time.

How to Make Easy Pineapple Wine Punch

Ingredients:

• Moscato Wine
• Pineapple Juice
• Orange Juice
• Sprite

All of the ingredients are stirred together in a 2 quart pitcher. Can be made ahead and chilled or served over ice.  It is such a simple party cocktail, refreshing and delicious!

I love a large batch cocktail that you can make ahead of the party. That way you are not playing bar tender while you could be visiting with your guests.

I know this would also be amazing as a frozen cocktail. I’m thinking I will freeze the pineapple juice and then blend the ingredients together. That’s next on my list to try. If you try it, let me know how it turns out.

It will be so good this summer to sip by the pool! I am counting the days until it’s warm enough to swim. I am going to be in charge of the pool this summer and I have no idea what I’m doing.

I will be reading up on pool maintenance and hoping I can get it right! Last summer was our first year of having a pool and my husband kept all of that stuff straight. He said it was my turn this year.

I found these super cute pineapple glasses on Amazon and couldn’t resist. They will also be super cute for my pineapple lemonade , Strawberry Pineapple Wine Punch, Pineapple Screwdrivers and these Easy Piña Coladas  and Piña Colada Wine Punch!

When we have a family get together or barbecue, I always make sure to have something special for the kids to drink too, not just the adults. I want everyone to feel welcome and have an enjoyable experience.

I’d love to hear about any parties or special get togethers that you are planning this spring and summer!

Mango Rum Cooler

The summer heat is cranking up and there’s nothing better than a refreshing cocktail to sip by the pool!

These Mango Rum Coolers are so easy to whip up in the blender. Just a bit of orange juice, fresh mango, a splash of rum and lots of ice. It blends up into an frosty drink that is sure to cool you off.

Summer parties and celebrations are my favorite. Last week we managed to have two! We celebrated the Fourth of July and my oldest son, Cody got married!! Can you believe it? I hardly can but I’m so very happy for them.

Cody and Abby met in high school when we were living in Wyoming. They decided to skip having a big wedding and chose a small court house ceremony.

Tony and I attended as the witnesses and then they were good sports and let me take a few photos on the ranch.

We are very happy that Abby is officially part of the family. To celebrate, we grilled steaks and made twice baked potato casserole and a big Greek Salad for dinner.

I baked up Dorie Greenspan’s amazing Party Cake layered with raspberry jam and topped with loads of cream cheese. We toasted the newlyweds with champagne and it was a really special day for two very special people. Life is good!

I think this was my first no-cry cake for a celebration. I’m known for my cake disasters and for calling my sister in law to come fix whatever cake mess I have created.

Thank goodness it turned out for this important occasion! No one wants mom crying on their wedding day and especially not over the cake!

It’s so surreal that two of my boys are adults. I am very, very proud of them all.

So there’s my big news! I have been running like a crazy person to get everything done the last couple  of weeks and I am ready to hit the pool and relax with one of these Mango Rum Coolers!

Of course you can skip the rum for the kiddos and just have a Mango Cooler, still refreshing and delicious or try my Strawberry Mango Coolers! 

Abby works with me for in my social media business and she has been editing my videos. I’m so glad we get along and have fun together.

Strawberry Lemonade Moscato Slushie

Wine slushies seem to be all the rage these days and what could be better on a hot summer day?

I tried a few different methods to make the slushies to see which worked best.  I mixed up the ingredients: Moscato, frozen lemonade concentrate, Sprite and strawberries into a pitcher.

How to Make Wine Slushies:

Option 1 – Ice Cream Maker

First I used my little ice cream maker and it worked great. The wine slushies were ready in about 30 minutes.  My ice cream maker is small and only held about 1/3 of the mixture.  Great for a quick slushie for 2 or 3 but not great for a crowd.

Option 2 – Cake Pan

I poured the remaining wine mixture into a cake pan and stuck it in the freezer.  In about 3 hours it was frozen to slushie stage.  Overnight it was pretty solid. I set the pan out for about 10 minutes and then cut it into chunks and placed them into a zip top bag.

Option 3- Ice Cube Trays

The other option is to pour the wine mixture into ice cube trays and freeze. Then pop the ice cubes into a blender to create the slushies or put the frozen cubes into zip top bags and keep on hand in the freezer.

My blender blew up and I haven’t got a replacement yet, so the cake pan method worked pretty good for me and I loved the ice cream maker for making them quickly.

Use which ever method works best for you as long as you make them! I love to have a wine slushie on demand!

I’ve had a ton of comments about these super cute glasses. I found them at Walmart ages ago but I’ve located these glasses on Amazon with handles.

I love making new party drinks for all of our family get togethers. We love to just get together for good food and family time.

With our family, it’s always relaxed and fun. These Strawberry Lemonade Moscato Slushies were the best thing I’ve made in a long time.

Another bonus is that you can make them far in advance of the party and just keep them in the freezer. They really should keep in an airtight container up to about 3 months. So make a big batch and enjoy them on demand!

They are my favorite way to use up all of those frozen strawberries that I accumulate. I swear strawberries start to go bad the day I bring them home from the grocery store. I end up freezing them for smoothies and cocktails!

It’s been a heck of a long week and I’m looking forward to these refreshing wine slushies this weekend! I hope you will give them a try for your next get together!

If you are looking to make something a little more family or kid friendly, try my 3- ingredient Easy Strawberry Limeade Punch made with the same method.  A refreshing and tasty slushie that the whole family can enjoy.  CHEERS!
