Hi there Reader!

Helloooo, summer! ☀️ The days are heating up, so I say it's high time we celebrate (or cope?) with a brightly-colored, fruit-infused drink in hand. Shall we?

I'm excited to share my favorite beverages to enjoy all summer long -- everything from frozen cocktails to fruity alcohol-free quenchers. 🍹

And let me tell you...while each drink is unique, they all have two things in common...1️⃣ they're ridiculously refreshing, and 2️⃣ they're highly recommended for poolside sipping. ⛱️

ENJOY!
