Welcome to Hottieish
Homemade recipes and kitchen hacks that bring joy daily.
Hottieish is where I document the shift from store-bought to homemade — one habit, one recipe, one small swap at a time. What started as posting homemade drinks on Instagram turned into a full obsession with making things myself. The juices I used to buy, the cookies I used to grab from a groccery store, the little kitchen tricks that make everyday food feel a bit more intentional.
Every homemade recipe you’ll find here is one I’ve actually made in my own kitchen — tested, tweaked, and posted only once it’s genuinely worth repeating. No filler recipes, no recycled content. If it’s here, I make it on repeat.
You’ll find three kinds of posts on this site: Drinks (juices, hydration recipes, the ones that started this whole thing), From Scratch (homemade versions of the meals I used to buy), and Kitchen Notes (small habits, swaps, and honest thoughts along the way).
New homemade recipes go up a few times a week — start with what’s below, or follow along in real time on Instagram @hottieishness.
