Hey Friends! How’s it goin?
Can you believe that 2014 is almost over already? New Year’s Eve is fast approaching and I have zero plans so far. Like none. I have a few friends here in Trinidad that I want to hang out with, but I’m so not looking forward to getting super glammed up (read: putting on heels) and heading out into civilization, so I’m praying that we just end up doing our own thing at someone’s house. But, whatever we decide to do, we’re gonna need some drinks. Whether we’re pre-drinking before heading out or just hanging at home, a little alcho is a must.
Of course, since it’s the day before the new year, I don’t want to derail my healthy living resolutions before they even begin and I thought that some of you would be in the same boat. Originally, I had planned to share my own recipe for a skinny New Year’s Eve cocktail but a combination of procrastination, weird lighting and spilled drinks meant that that didn’t happen. So instead, I’m sharing a list healthier cocktail recipes that I think would be perfect for ringing in the New Year.
Enjoy!

Funny thing, I spent last NYE locking myself in my friend’s bathroom and passing out on the floor. Oops. This was a direct results of cocktails and shots. I may avoid them altogether this year (hard to get that stupid just on beer alone) but if I brave the spirits… I’ll try one of these! Thanks for sharing, happy 2015 to ya!

Great round up of cocktails! I usually like low-key New Year’s plans, but it is fun to get dressed up too. Hope you have a great time whatever you end up doing.!

I have no idea what I’m doing on NYE either… I’d like to do something special since the weather is supposed to be nice (read: NOT -25) for once, but I also have a hard time keeping my eyes open past 10:30, so we’ll see how that plays out. Actually, I’m okay if I’m out and about, but trying to get me out of the house past 9 is an exercise in futility 😆
