Happy Hour Time

Welcome, Welcome everyone to another Happy Hour Time! I always love when Friday rolls around and there is somewhat of a chance to relax, enjoy the weather that is slowly warming up, spend time with friends and family, and of course enjoy a cocktail! I hope everyone has had a wonderful week and that it continues into a fabulous weekend! Cheers!

  9. Goodness, that sounds sublimely refreshing!!! I can't drink at all due to medical reasons (haven't been able to for nearly 12 years now, most likely never will be able to again), so I'm going to have to see if I can play around with the flavours here to come up with a tasty virgin version this summer. Thank you for the delicious drink inspiration.

    Big hugs,
    ♥ Jessica
