My girlfriends and I get together every Tuesday night, and we love to enjoy a cocktail alongside some yummy finger foods! When I’m drinking a Bacardi Hand-Shaken Daiquiri I would most definitely pair it with Mexican food! How great does a cocktail party sound with Bacardi Hand-Shaken Daiquiri’s alongside chips with homemade salsa and queso? I’ve recently found two great recipes, tried them out on my family – and they were a HUGE hit! Sit back with your friends and enjoy a delicious cocktail, and homemade appetizers!

Here you go, here are two of my favorite recipes – and they would go perfectly with your Bacardi Hand-Shaken Daiquiri!

Fresh Salsa

• 3 tomatoes, chopped
• 1/2 cup finely diced onion
• 1-2 serrano chiles, finely chopped
• 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons lime juice

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, stir together tomatoes, onion, chili peppers, cilantro, salt, and lime juice. Chill for at least one hour in the refrigerator before serving.

Queso Blanco Dip

Yield: about 2 cups
Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp. canola or vegetable oil
• ¼ cup onion, finely chopped
• 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped
• 12 oz. white American cheese, shredded*
• 4 oz. Monterey jack cheese, shredded
• ¼-2/3 cup milk
• 1 tomato, seeded and finely diced
• 2 tbsp. cilantro, minced

*White American cheese can be found at the deli counter in most grocery stores.

Directions:

Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.  Add the onion and jalapeño to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes.  Reduce the heat to medium-low.  Add both of the shredded cheeses and ¼ cup of the milk.  Whisk or stir until completely melted.  Mix in the tomato and cilantro, and add additional milk gradually as necessary to achieve desired consistency.  Transfer to a warmed serving bowl and serve immediately.

And of course, please remember to drink responsibly! Respect alcohol, respect yourself. For most adults, it’s fine to enjoy a drink. At the same time, we all need to look after our health and well-being. Be responsible!

What did you think of the ‘Black Eyed Peas’ performance last night?

Nicki’s performance last night was amazing! Love her!

I watched the awards last night, and all I have to say is Britney is NOT back, b*tch. Watching her was like watching a car crash in slow motion. She can’t even lipsync anymore! What has the world come to, I tell ya.

Other than that – everyone did pretty good. Nicki Minaj was great, Ke$ha wasn’t half bad…
