The Newest Blogger……
Hi there! I’m Jen and the newest blogger to the group. I live in St. Louis MO and from the Midwest. I have lived other places such as San Antonio, NYC, and Norfolk CT. But seem to keep coming back to the Midwest. I graduated from Webster University with a BA in Communications and have been working at Luxco Spirited Brands for the past 7 years. The main brands we market are Pearl Vodka, St. Brendan’s Irish Cream, and El Mayor Tequila. It’s quite fun here at Luxco! On the side I am building my own freelance business with all Social Media/Marketing/PR/and Event Coordinating for nonprofit and small business owners.
I live in the Central West End it’s near so many great places I love! Forest Park, Pizza Pi, North West Coffee, Starbucks, and boutiques. I am the mother of two beautiful Chihuahua’s I rescued from a puppy mill Renny and Lola. They love long walks, french-fries and pizza.
When I am not slaving away I love spending my time with the love of my life Brett and of course all my friends and family. My fave past times are juicing, yoga, bikram, traveling, movies, dog park, hanging at coffee joints, taking walks, and reading.I am excited to start this journey of blogging! XOXO

@PearlWedCake Vodka by @PearlVodka
You don’t need a fancy white gown and a handsome groom to enjoy the new Pearl Wedding Cake Vodka!
I was really excited when I received the samples that Pearl Vodka had sent me. And before I started creating exotic cocktails, I decided to take a swig of it straight, so that I could experience the full flavor.
It was very tasty, with a wonderful flavor that wasn’t too sweet. I didn’t even need a mixer (and this is coming from someone who doesn’t care for straight liquor)! It reminded me of the smooth Panna Cotta gelato I once had, or Cold Stone Creamery’s Cake Batter ice cream, both of which I loved!
Here are some recipes from their website that look delicious (if I ever wanted to mix it with anything!).
