Whoops. So I’m a smidgen late for today’s post. However, I made it up by posting a really really really delicious drink. Hello! (rambling side note: every time I say “Hello!” I think of Cher from “Clueless” when she says “Hello, it was his 50th birthday!”…am I the only one?) It’s fresh pomegranate in margarita form. Or you could just say it’s a dose of antioxidants and liquor fueled energy.
Another thing I love about this drink is that it includes fresh pomegranate seeds. They are one of the best parts about winter and I could eat them every single day. Also, I really need a drink. Who’s with me? Cheers!!!
