Ginger Pear Bellini

We do love a good drink

Now that Santa’s left town you know what that means, right? Time to party! And if there’s one day to do a beverage right, it’s definitely New Year’s Eve. This year we’re making pears work double time – a ginger pear champagne cocktail for New Year’s Eve and a detoxifying green juice for the morning after.

When it comes to cocktails, I like to keep it simple. Then you can add a not-so-common flavor combination – like pear and ginger – to make it feel fancy. For this Bellini all you need to do is make a simple syrup, puree some fruit and pop open a bottle of bubbly.

Pear Ginger Spinach Detox Juice

Ain't nobody got time to be hungover!

Hangovers happen. And while water, aspirin, and a little time are the best ways to deal with the after-effects of drinking, little things—like what you eat—can help. Take this pressed-juice recipe, for instance. At first glance, it may seem like just a the first minus the vodka, but it's a juicing recipe for energy that will help you power through the day.

Full of the essential nutrients (think: vitamin C, lycopene, and hydrating water) that your body is depleted of from drinking, this pressed juice also gets a spicy kick from the added ginger. And when you're feeling too miserable to move, a quick boost of endorphins can make or break the day. Nauseated? There's a little dose of stomach-soothing ginger to help you out too.
