Every year, the organizers of La Feria Sámara bring us an evening Christmas Crafts edition Feria Navideña. And this year's market was a blast! So many local vendors came out to help us complete our Christmas shopping lists. From jewelry to clothes, art to edible goodies, there was something for everyone. The Feria Navideña kicked off with a Marimba performance by La Samareña, filling the market with the upbeat chimes of traditional compositions. Later, several local artist got together to provide a Super Jam, including Alan Alonso, Madison, Luchi, Torsten, & Vincente. When Santa joined the market, they got everyone in the Christmas spirit by playing Feliz Navidad. The kids were overjoyed when Santa finally came to steal the show. We are so lucky he made the time in his busy schedule to visit us at the Feria Navideña by Feria Sámara. Santa was embracing the warm weather and going just for his Santa Robe to stay cool in our tropical December weather. I can't stop thinking about all of the wonderful foods that were being served and sold. My favorite were the smokey and spicy sausages being sold right next to the AWA designs stand. I can't wait for next year's fun! Merry Christmas Everyone!

Who doesn't love the chance to drink for charity 😅 And when you can learn how to create your own cocktail from Sámara's best craft cocktail bartender, Carla at Angler's, you just can't pass that opportunity up! Angler's opened their doors to a group of 15 eager students ready to find out what makes a balanced and memorable cocktail. Every good bartender knows the best drinks start with the best ingredients! Carla explains the most important part of a well crafted cocktail, prep work! She spends hours infusing her housemade simple syrups with tumeric, ginger, rosemary, sage (and more), juicing fresh limon mandarinas, and preparing and pureeing the local fruits, herbs, and spices that make her drinks so flavorful. Shhhh, we found out Carla's secret 🤫🤣 Unless you are making a dessert cocktail, every drink is made better with a balance of sweet and sour coming together to give the drink a cohesive and intentional taste. Carla achieves this by giving every drink a base of one of her sugar syrups; raw brown simple syrup or the what she has infused with herbs and spices like Rosemary, Sage, Tumeric, and Ginger; and then adding the painstakingly hand squeezed limon mandarina juice (emphasis on FRESH squeezed, Carlita was very clear the bottled BS from the super is unacceptable 😅). After which, your flavors of choice can be added. Now that that's out of the way, it's time for the fun! Prepared with the knowledge that every drink needs a balance of sweet and sour, each attendee was able to choose their own concoction. The local produce selection in Sámara allows Angler's bar to offer so many different flavors. On the day of our class, we got to choose from strawberry, blackberry, pineapple, mango, coconut, red dragon fruit, passionfruit, guanabana, cucumber, jalapeño, basil, and more. Once you had an idea of your flavor profile, sweet, herbacious, sour, spicy...Carla gave everyone tips on which liquors fit complimented each flavor choice the most...vodka, rums, tequila, mezcal, gin, and more. My favorite course tip: Drink the one you like 😆 I went with a chocolate and coffee martini, with her housemade coffee infused liquor...OMG it is to die for! Apparently she sells it as well as a housemade honey liquor....I ended up getting a bottle to take home 🤩 The best part, trying everyone's innovative drink combos! The two best drinks were a coconut and coffee cockatil, name TBD but maybe the Spunky Monkey, or Cafe Coco? And a surprisingly refreshing and tasty compilation of passion fruit and sage! It was a little too good. I'm calling it "The Passionate Sage" The 15 class graduates and myself are now armed with the knowledge of what makes a great cocktail and are ready to impress our friends at the next party, or just ourselves at home. What a great time we all had in the name of charity! Join us once a month at Angler's and let Carla help you improve your bartending skills while helping a deserving cause, PATA Animal Rescue and their sweet pups (and cat)! Check the events calendar here for the next monthly cocktail crafting course.... https://www.searchsamara.com/allevents PATA, Sámara's Animal Rescue, cares for and finds forever homes for Sámara's abandoned and stray pet population, as well as providing low cost and no cost castrations and medication to assist in future population control. They are a non-profit organization that does not get goverment assistance and survives only on the kind donations of people like you. We wish our community didn't need their services so desperately, but the unfortunate fact is we have a big problem! PATA is capable of caring for up to 30 rescues at a time and are constantly at or near capacity. Dogs and cats are found abandoned or stray daily, and without assistance from PATA some pet owners would never be able to afford to have their animal fixed. Please take a moment to visit their site and find out how you can donate and other ways you can help in their incredible mission. Our furry friends (AND I) will thank you! https://www.patasamaraanimalrescue.com/donate https://www.patasamaraanimalrescue.com/helpus

I will admit, shamefully, this is the first Samara Beach Clean-Up I have made it to since moving to Sámara in January. However, in my defense, I did not know about them. And now, I want to remedy that for others! Every month, local Sámara Hostels and businesses partner up to organize this awesome initiative. Typically, they meet in front of Intercultura with all the bags and gloves necessary for the task ahead. It may not sound like it, but beach clean-ups are so much fun! You get to meet new like-minded people, chit-chatting along the way, while you soak in the sun and help the environment, all in one fell swoop. And if that wasn't rewarding enough, Tika Frutika is kind enough to provide refreshments back at their place following the clean-up. If you're lucky, Jessica will have prepared her refreshing tamarindo beverage with this amazing citrusy mint that grows right there in Mercadito Sámara, but anything she makes is delicious! ¡Que Rico! During the couple hours of clean-up, the amount of mircoplastics seemed insurmountable. We were focusing on the riverbank in between Sámara and Cangrejal, and it was devastating. Once you start looking for mircoplastics, it will change the way you look at the beach forever. And when you go to pick up the sunbaked brittle plastics only shatter into more peices to be picked up. How can we hope to solve this problem, short of sifting all of the sand on every beach? We can do our part by using less plastics, bringing our own to go containers and beverage bottles, choosing sustainably packaged goods over ones sold in non-biodegradable single use packaging, and properly recycling what plastics we do use. Every effort makes a difference! Thank you to everyone who joined November's beach clean up! And a BIG thank you to the sponsors and organizers of the event Casa Terra Pipa House Samara LA ALDEA Samara Hostel Las Mariposas Samara TIKA Frutika Fruits Salads & Protein Shakes Mercadito Sámara for providing such a great way to give back to the beach that gives so much to us. Follow us on Facebook or check our events section with full calendar for the next monthly Beach Clean-Up. We hope to see you there!
