Hi, I’m Mel.

I’m sharing little ways that I find comfort and balance with a fast-paced, digital career. In a more, more, more society I hope you find retreat and inspiration to strike the balance, too.

My drink of the summer! Kyle has perfected this recipe with a few tries and it’s so crisp, fresh and delish. Cheers!

Kyle’s Spicy Marg

-1 oz. simple syrup
-Juice of half lime
-2 oz. tequila
-1 oz. triple sec
-Splash of lime La Croix or seltzer water to taste

You can stop there if you don’t like spicy! To add your spice, take one sliver of jalapeño and shake. After pouring, keep your sliver of jalapeño afloat so it adds to the cocktail as you sip. For extra spice (that’s me!) go with 2 slivers of jalapeño.
