never enough - pisces on shoes and drink
the sign whose mood may sometimes plunge to the bottom of the ocean, rules that which plunges to the bottom of the body - the foot is ruled by pisces. and so she is constantly fishing for beautiful shoes for each of her fishy feet to don. no, pisces can never have too many boots, or too many cocktails. and as much as they love shoes and drink, i love them. they are dreamy yet realistic, motivated yet relaxed, and one of my favorite signs. cheers to you pisces!
NEVER ENOUGH (pineapple sage margarita)
2 wedges fresh pineapple
4 fresh sage leaves
2 fresh organic lime wedges*
1/4 oz organic raw simple syrup*
1 3/4 oz silver tequilamuddle pineapple, sage, lime, simple syrup in mixing glass until well macerated. add tequila and shake over ice vigorously for ten seconds. strain into martini glass.
* simple syrup is a blend of equal parts sugar and water. use organic raw for more flavor. agitate every so often until fully dissolved and store in fridge.
* of course, using organic fruit is always recommended. but in the case of muddling the skin of the fruit , such as the lime in this recipe, it is highly recommended to avoid direct toxin contact.
thanks to anistatia miller and jared brown for this recipe, and the simple syrup recipe above. the pineapple sage margarita was originally created by the LONSDALE in london.

How utterly appropriate. As a pisces and a shoe lover, I dug this posting beaucoup.

After all the perfectly swell and swank, slushy and creamy piña colada recipes out there, this is a nifty two-step away from the typical pineapple cocktail. Thanks for your WHB entry!

I’m not a pisces, but I do love the sound of this, especially the sage!
