The Remedy's
End of Summer Newsletter

As the summer starts to wind down, and those moody fall days start to waltz their way in. We look for those last bits of summertime fun to hold onto. It's the best part of summer in my opinion. It's when some of the best memories are made. The warm morning sun hitting your knees while enjoying a cup of coffee, the smell of the air when walking the pooch on the beach, then those cool breezy nights with a blanket and some live music with your besties. Below you'll find a variety of cool and fun stuff to help you make the best of those last days of summer.

What We Are Listening To

End of Summer Date Idea:
Montavilla Neighborhood

This summer we went and explored the Montavilla Neighborhood and had some great food and drinks while we were there.

1. Have dinner at Yaowarat: Thai/Chienes fusion food inspired by the food of Bangkok. The menu is small but mighty and everything we had was out of this world. Highly suggest the Chive Cakes, Crispy Bean Curd Dumplings, and Kuay Teow Kua G*i. Be sure to get a Thai Iced Tea and try out one of their unique cocktails. Reservations Recommended!
Check out the menu here: https://www.yaowaratpdx.com/

2. Grab a Drink at Arbor Hall (formerly The Vintage Bar)
Formerly the Vinatge Bar, Arbor Hall is just a few doors down from Yaowarat. Enjoy TIki Inspired drinks and a great atmosphere.

Check out the menu here: https://arborhallpdx.com/

3. Get a cupcake at Hungry Heart Bakery.
On the weekend, Hungry Heart Bakery has sweets from 12-6. Their bakery case looks amazing, and they even have some vegan sweets available too!
Check them out here: https://www.hungryheartpdx.com/ (https://www.hungryheartpdx.com/)

4. Catch a late night Movie

Summer Date Idea:
Spend the Day in
Hood River

Recently we went on a date day in Hood River, we had an amazing time.

Take advantage of the good weather while its here.

1. Have breakfast at Broder Ost: Delicious nordic Brunch located in the Hood River Hotel. Highly recommend the Swedish Hash and the Crispy Smashed Potatoes. The Danish Pancake also looked amazing!

You can find their menu here: https://www.brodereast.com/menus

2. Check out the Hood River Fruit Loop
The Fruit Loop is 30 different Farm Stands, Vineyards, Orchards, etc. that are located within a 30 minute drive of Hood River as you drive towards Mount Hood. We went to the Gorge White House and tried a flight of 8 of their ciders. Beautiful views of Mount Hood.

Check out the Fruit Loop Here:
https://www.hoodriverfruitloop.com/farmstands

3. Go to the Riverfront
Hood River has an amazing river front park with a great walking path. Walk along the river while you watch all the people kite boarding, foil boarding, and wind surfing. Grab a Shaved Ice at Benny's Shave Ice Cart. We suggest the Mount Hood Specialty. Find them on Instagram

4. Go to a Brewery
We love going to Pfriem and Ferment when we are in Hood River. Both have excellent beers and food. Ferment has a great outdoor patio, and a bunch of food carts right below them in the parking lot.

Check out the breweries here:

Seasonal Cocktail Recipe

This months cocktail is one of my favorite styles of cocktails, tiki, made with my favorite spirit, gin (NA alternative us DHOS Gin by Ransom). When navigating the world of tiki from home, things can get pretty intimidating and a bit expensive. A lot of them can be labor intensive or require a variety of ingredients. The Saturn however is about as easy and tasty of a tiki cocktail as you'll find.

INGREDIENTS
* 2 oz Gin ( I use Ransom Dry Gin)(NA alternative DHOS)
* .5 oz fresh squeezed lemon juice
* .5 oz passion fruit syrup
* .25 oz falernum
* .25 oz Orgeat
* .25 pineapple juice
* GET FANCY > garnish with lemon twist and edible flower

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Add all ingredients to the blender along with ice (prefer crushed), blend.

2. Pour into a tiki mug or highball glass

3. Garnish and don't forget the little umbrella.

ENJOY!
