Date Night Idea : Cheese Board+Some Bubbly

This isn’t one of my traditional recipes because I didn’t really make any of these things, but more like I just plate them together.

But here goes because it’s a cute idea, right?

What you will need : For the drink, I use the simplest things
4 shots Vodka, 2 shots per drink ( I like em strong)
1 lime

2 La Croix, sparkling water ( I used Tangerine)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4th cucumber sliced

For the cheese board, I bought a sausage at Trader Joe’s but I have bought some salami at Target as well. Some of it is $5- $15 depending on what meat and flavors you like.
Some cheese, I used Dutch Gouda Cheese from Trader Joes, a slice of which is under $10
Guilt-free Wheat Thins from Trader Joes or Kroger
Some pickles on the board
Honey
Mustard
Olives
Jalapeños

Nuts
Apricot or any fruit jam or preserve

For the drink, In a big pitcher, add the la croix, vodka, squeeze half a lime, add chopped cucumber, salt. Stir and serve.

For the board you can plate it like I do, or use your own imagination.
Here’s some pictures for examples.

Refreshing and yummy!

One of my quick-fix boards for when I have unexpected company 🙂
