#BloggerClue: Louboutin, Le Creuset & Cocktails

Louboutin.  Check.

Le Creuset.  Check.

Cocktails.  Check.

Cooking in Stilettos?  Well, maybe it’s more like Mephistos these days but boy do I love my Louboutin and Le Creuset.  This month I was assigned Cooking in Stilettos as part of the Blogger Clue Society this month.  What’s not to love – Aly, the creative force behind Cooking in Stilettos is all about cooking, baking, cocktails, her little Sous Pug and loving those Louboutins.

Our theme this month was all bout red and romance, and what says romance more than an amorous cocktail.  (Okay, maybe diamonds or  Louboutins, but its up for debate.)  Aly has a great selection of cocktails on her blog and I decided to take some inspiration from her Bella Fruta Cocktail and adapt it to ingredients I had on hand. The end result is Love Potion No. 9.  It is a delightfully red and romantic cocktail to serve, a little fruity and a whole lot of sassy.

  1. I love Aly, and while I choose to cook in comfy slippers instead of stilettos, see a lot of myself in the foods she makes. This drink you chose is a good example. Both versions look absolutely fantastic, and I love that you chose Chambord because it’s one of my favorite liqueurs.
