Drink of the Day: The Sunny Day Cocktail
As we all wind down after a great weekend, Sundays seem to get you back to normal and mentally prepare yourself for the week to come. As we are about to dip the quill in the fountain of ink to write out our next chapter, it is nice to first enjoy a soft and relaxing beverage that will probably be remembered more for its aromatic character more than anything else. However, the fresh fruit juices play an important role, giving this cocktail a nice and refreshing taste.
Since it’s Sunday, I am going to make my blog quite short and get right into the Drink of the Day. Enjoy your day with friends and family. But, most important, enjoy your day with you.
Here’s to your next chapter. May it be filled with adventure and fun. Cheers!
