Frugal and Fabulous
On today’s podcast, I speak with Mr. and Mrs. Frugalwoods from the personal finance blog, Frugalwoods. They are on the path to financial freedom by the age of 33, which for them is only three years away. I had a lot of great takeaways from this chat, but my favorite quote from Mrs. Frugalwoods to describe the two of them was, “We are frugal weirdos and proud!”
The Frugal-tini
The frugal-tini is essentially a gimlet, and it’s the most frugal martini I could think of as it only requires gin or vodka and a lime.
- 2 oz of Gin or Vodka
- 1 oz of fresh lime juice
Shake on ice and serve in a martini glass
*If you want to make a non-alchoholic version of this, you can just shake up some limeade on ice and it will taste about the same.
