Here’s a good linguistic description on Puro Wine: http://www.purowine.com/2012-alto-los-romeros-reserva-carmenere-colchagua-valley-chile

For those who can’t have the sugar content in creme de coco, you can use coconut juice with pulp instead and add agave if needed.

Grolsch [PhotoCred: Maria Flateau, Brownstone Living] Sooo, I needed some bottles for my annual holiday drinks that I give to my family every Christmas and saw this beauty at my local bodega. Not disappointed at all. I thought I was going to have to pour the the beer down the sink but alas it was good and I got to take both bottles to the head, lol.. Not to light nor heavy, this beer is crispy and refreshing and very satisfying. I'm not really good with beer descriptions but I do know taste and quality and this beer has both excellent taste and is made of good quality. A bit on the pricey side for one beer, roughly $4/bottle but well worth the coins, especially if you re-use the bottle. The bottles make for great use of home made what evers.. I used it for my vegan coquito that I will share in a few post after this. Heres a link to Grolsch's site with an excellent description of the beer: http://www.grolsch.co.uk/beer/premium Drink up!

Manny's (Choice) October 2014 [PhotoCredit: Maria Flateau, Brownstone Living] Yal know I'm behind on 3 months of post so it's safe to assume that I have eaten here at least 20-30 times since I have taken this picture that I- Think- I Took in October of 2014, lol.. Anywho, the biscuit-like Empanada's made on premise are one of the many items that they make exceptionally well (on premises). Lately, I've been obsessed with their cappuccinos, lattes and Americanos all with sprinkles of cinnamon and of course made with half/half. For some reason my body rejects whole milk but loves half/half and heavy cream, smh.. Manny's is another restaurant under the Choice Market brand out in Fort Green and Clinton Hill communities. They use whole foods and fresh ingredients which is a major plus and good explanation for the $$ you spend when you go in thinking your going to order one thing and come out with more because of how good everything looks. You can follow my check-ins to Manny's on Swarm and read my review of the food on FourSquare. Peace Chicos and Chicas

Brooklyn Kolache Co. October 2014 [photoCred: Maria Flateau, Brownstone Living] Delicious. Stuffed perfection. They make sweet and savory buns. Up top are two savory selections with spicy mustard and sriracha condiments and of course iced Kitten Coffee with half/half and simple syrup. This is my go to breakfast spot. They have the best coffee and breakfast money can buy and your wait is no longer than 5 min, can't beat it. Also the back yard is pretty cool, nice staff and great location for where ever your headed as it is on the cusp of Bedford- Stuyvesant, Clinton Hill and Williamsburg. For my history buffs, check out this article I found in the NY Times: http://mobile.nytimes.com/2013/10/09/dining/the-kolache-czech-texan-or-all-american-all-three.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 For more info on one of my favorite breakfast spots in Brooklyn: http://www.brooklynkolacheco.com/menu/
