With a Twist

The other week I met up with some bloggers for dinner and drinks at TexiKo Tequila Bar in Hamden, CT, where we devoured tasty Tex-Mex inspired dishes and sipped cocktails made with Ripe cold press cocktail mixers. My margarita was so tasty with the Ripe mix - just fresh limes, oranges, and agave with no preservatives and nothing from concentrate. Drink mixing made simple! TexiKo spoiled us with half a dozen menu items, and in true blogger form, we took over the restaurant, relocating dishes to the bar by the windows or even just taking them outside - because it's always about the photos.

  1. I always love how much fun it looks like you girls are having at your events. It reminds me of the early days of fashion events in Vancouver, before the city became a luxury destination and bloggers began to be treated like journalists - which was thrilling in its own way, but far more exhausting and totally devoid of the sense of community that we had in the early years. There is something about being able to take over a space with a group of like-minded women that is just so utterly satisfying. And of course I love the look you chose for the evening, particularly since your cocktail matches your skirt!

  2. How freaking fun! I love that your cocktail matches your skirt, but also that you have such a wonderful community where you are. Here it's a little weird sometimes and you never know if the people are actually nice or just faking it!
