Drink of the Day: Harlem Cocktail
Happy Hump Day and welcome to the new month!
April 1st is April Fools Day, so be careful not to get caught up in a gag. This is a friendly reminder that if something seems to be too far-fetched for you to be reality, you are probably right. Today would be the day where you need to be on your toes for practical jokes.
One thing that you can count on is that I wouldn’t put you through this when it comes to the Drink of the Day. In fact, I have purposely selected a cocktail that is easy to make, so you won’t be second-guessing my intentions. A perfect gin cocktail that is both aromatic and tasty, and it won’t take you too long to prepare.
Enjoy your day. We are just around the corner to some great Springtime weather. This cocktail is the perfect kickoff to the month April; no fooling!
Cheers!
