Celebrate with a Cointreau MargaDITA!

The reigning queen of Burlesque has been honored with her very own drink! And just in time for Cinco De Mayo!

Dita has been the spokesperson for Cointreau for a while now, and they have FINALLY honored her with an official drink. The MARGADITA!

Dita Von Teese’s tasty new libation is a homage to Margarita Sames, the bon vivante Dallas socialite who created the original recipe in 1948 while vacationing at her Acapulco cliffside hacienda. According to Dita Von Teese, “The Cointreau MargaDita is a tantalizing haute-cocktail with a spicy twist.”

“Margarita Sames was clearly a strong, confident, and stylish woman well known for her entertaining prowess – qualities that I both admire and, hopefully, embody,” says Dita Von Teese. “Her Margarita recipe has been enjoyed for over 60 years and it seemed only natural for me to create my own cocktail as a tribute to this glamorous and charismatic woman.”

Dita Von Teese toasts this alluring woman, who unfortunately passed away this past year, by using the classic margarita ingredients as a base for her Cointreau MargaDita cocktail: Cointreau, tequila and fresh lime juice. “I wanted to keep the integrity of the original margarita recipe, but add a personal touch of my own. The juxtaposition of floral notes with spicy elements makes for a seductive twist: aromatic Monin Rose Syrup for a hint of floral, feminine perfume, and a dash of chipotle powder for an unexpected spicy smack. I think Margarita Sames would approve,” says Dita Von Teese.

To make your own Cointreau MargaDita:
1.5 oz Cointreau
1.5 oz Silver Tequila
1 oz Fresh Lime Juice
1/2 oz Monin Rose Syrup
1 pinch Chipotle Spice

Mix all ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously and pour into a chilled coup glass. Garnish with floating organic yellow rose petals. For an added kick, add a chipotle and salt rim.

Hef

Mine must still be on its way…

It’s wedding season!   That means put your clothes on and put on tie!  That’s doubly true if you’re going to be attending Hef and Crystal’s wedding at the Playboy Mansion.

Hef sent out this photo of the invitation for his June 18th wedding to playmate Crystal Harris.

It is a very pretty invite.  I’m just surprised Hef is getting married  at the Mansion again.  That’s where he married his last wife. (The same location of Kendra Wilkinson’s wedding, at the well on the lawn.)

Maybe it will be at a different spot??

Bridget Marquardt Debuts Halloween Costume Line With Mini Movie

Former Girls Next Door favorite, Bridget Marquardt is continuing her LOOOOOVE of Halloween, and turning it into a money making venture. Bunny Bridget now has her own line of adult Halloween costumes!

To announce the line with Roma Costume, Bridget stars in her own “scary movie”. Is that…. Hef and a Playboy Bunny in a hotel room?

I love Bridget, and I love that she still loves dressing up in costume. I think I like the Ringleader and the kitty cat the best.

I cannot wait to see the rest of the line.
