Celebrate the arrival of Sweet L.A. Life: All Grown Up by hosting your own Sweet L.A. Life Party! Check out the ideas below for inspiration!

Fire & Ice
FIRE AND ICE The drink is also sometimes called “Apples and Oranges” It’s both sweet and sour—much like Jessica & Jennifer—and you shake it over ice and at the end light the orange peel before you dunk it in the drink. Directions:
 * 1 ½ ounce of vodka
 * 1 ounce apple brandy
 * ¾ ounce of ginger liquor or just juice
 * ½ ounce of freshly squeezed lemon juice
 * ½ ounce of grenadine

1. Shake all ingredients over ice.

2. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

3. Garnish with a flamed orange peel.

Sweet and Sour Mix
Homemade Sweet & Sour Mix From Bon Appetit magazine

3 cups water 3 cups sugar 2 cups fresh lemon juice 2 cups fresh lime juice
 * 1) Combine water and sugar in large saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to boil. Cool syrup.
 * 2) Mix syrup, lemon juice and lime juice in pitcher. Chill until cold. (Can be made 1 week ahead. Cover; keep chilled)

Sweet and Spicy
Jessica & Elizabeth “Sweet & Spicy” Sausage Hors D’oeuvres (Tip: The FILO will be flakier than the puff pastry, but puff pastry is easier to work with.)
 * Two types of thin sausages of the same type and shape—sweet (such as chicken and apple) and one spicy (such as spicy Italian). (Tip: If you can’t find two flavors of same-sized sausages, buy a sweeter one and and sprinkle red chili flakes on half to make it spicy.)
 * Store bought FILO dough or puff pastry.

Directions:

1. Place dough in fridge until just defrosted but still quite cold.

2. Roll out dough into rectangle shape (unless already shaped that way).

3. Line sausage links up in a straight line one inch away from edge.

4. Paint edge of dough with melted butter (to help the dough stick when baked) and roll to cover sausage completely.

5. Once rolled, brush top of roll with melted butter or egg to ensure a golden brown color after baking.

6. Make small surface cuts to mark where you will cut through after baking. (Tip: This will make it less likely to fall apart- especially if you are using FILO dough.)

7. Bake for about 25 minutes (or until golden) on 325 degrees Fahrenheit oven.
