Happy Thirsty Thursday!

I love the irony of me posting cocktail recipes while on Whole30. Funny, right?

When I got home from Mexico I was super inspired after all of the amazing cocktails that we had down there, so I made sure that I was bartending like crazy last week in order to be able to share them with you over the next few weeks.

I decided to start with this one because it was my children’s favorite. Oh wait! Not the boozy version. They did not add Vodka to theirs, but as long as you are a grownup- I highly recommend the Vodka ☺

However, if you are not a drinker the virgin version is delightful too!

A Raspberry-Vanilla syrup, lots of fresh mint and touch of bright lemon juice are cut with cold club soda and if you like- vodka. It’s super refreshing and lightly sweet- perfect sipping for pretty much any time…
