The tartness of the lemonade is subdued slightly by the earthy rosemary and cream and the seltzer adds a bit of zing to this rosemary lemon cream soda.

Five-spice seasoning in a cocktail might sound strange, but it's delightful! It's tangy and spicy with a touch of sweetness so you don't forget the vodka.

These crepes are all about the cherry filling, and it doesn't disappoint! Cherries simmered in cherry liqueur give them a delectable flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweet crepes.

This berry tiramisu was better than I imagined it would be! It was sweet and creamy with a slight pop of tartness from the berries.

Rosemary lemonade? Yes indeed! This recipe made lemonade that was balanced nicely between tart and sweet, and the rosemary added a subtle flavor I loved.

Beer, chocolate, and blackberries are a terrific combination! These rich, gooey brownies were all about the chocolate, but the blackberries and chocolate stout added a nice touch of flavor.

These blackberry and goat cheese toasts were so easy! The sweet blackberry compote contrasts nicely with the goat cheese, and thick toasted bread adds another dimension of flavor and texture.

Sweet, tangy, and refreshing are all good things I found in this Mint Limeade Fizz recipe. Just a few ingredients and a little time made a refreshing summer drink that was a huge hit!

This Italian soda recipe is as crisp and refreshing as it sounds. The raspberries are nice and sweet, and the Key limes add just a touch of tartness.

Caramel banana and bourbon pie is everything you imagine it to be and more! This pie is all about the bourbon and banana, with the caramel filling and graham cracker crusts playing supporting roles. And the whipped cream, toffee bits, and shaved chocolate toppings certainly get an honorable mention.

This tangerine martini recipe is a treat for the senses! The smell of sweet tangerines is the first thing you'll notice, followed by the earthy scent of the thyme sprig garnish. The honey adds just enough sweetness without making this cocktail cloying. All in all, a sweet but still fresh and clean martini that was a nice way to end a hot summer day.

You might need to experiment a bit since exact quantities aren't given for the ingredients, but this cocktail is worth trying. My perfect blackberry bourbon smash used a little simple syrup to soften the taste of the alcohol. Because of that, I was also able to taste the blackberries and mint, not just the bourbon.
