This Week, According To Rani...
Every week, our A.M. girl Rani shares her thoughts or pop culture fixation of the moment. This week we found your new favourite nightcap and maybe going copper this Summer is a good idea...
Your new favourite nightcap.
If you're looking for a new nightcap, look no further! This is the ultimate end-of-night or end-of-dinner (head to the clubs) cocktail! On the menu at Market Bistro is where we found this delightful drink: the Coconut Caramel Espresso Martini, made with silky whey vodka, a shot of rich espresso, a swirl of salted caramel, and creamy coconut.
Try it at home:
45ml whey vodka (or regular vodka if that’s what you have)
30ml fresh espresso (cooled slightly)
15ml coffee liqueur
15ml salted caramel syrup
15ml coconut cream
Method: Shake hard over ice until frothy, strain into a martini glass, and garnish with coffee beans or toasted coconut.
It’s smooth, rich, and a little bit cheeky basically, the kind of cocktail you’ll be telling everyone about.
Is It The Summer You Go Copper...
Call it the shade of the season: copper is everywhere. Celebs and influencers are swapping icy blondes and dark brunettes for somewhat warmer glossy auburns, soft strawberry blondes, even pink-tinted coppers that catch the sun just right.
Leighton Meester is the latest to debut the look, joining a long list of cool-girls proving that copper is as versatile as it is striking. It feels fresh, playful, and instantly lifts even the most pared-back outfit.
Whether it’s a full transformation or a subtle tint, copper is the hair equivalent of summer’s golden hour: warm, flattering, and a little bit magical.
