Happy Thirsty Thursday Everyone!
I hope you are getting ready for a relaxing weekend and I hope this drink helps contribute to your relaxation!
But maybe you’re like my hubby and me and between you both you hold down 6 different jobs and one or both of you have to work through the weekend again. I’m not complaining. The Good Lord has seen fit to make sure we can pay all of our bills which is a blessing many people don’t have. And if your situation is anywhere close to mine, I hope this drink helps to take the edge off in a very tasty way!

Oh my gosh! I can’t drink right now because I am nursing, but that looks awesome!
Congrats on your little one! Babies are such joys! Maybe you can look forward to this thrifty treat when you are done nursing. Thanks for commenting!
sounds delicious!
Thanks so much! If you get a chance to try it, I’d love to know what you think!
Looks good and sounds good! Thanks for sharing. will make sure to try this drink.
I think you’ll like it! It’s tasty in a way that you want a drink to be because the combination of flavors cover the alcohol taste so well. When you try it I’d love to know what you think!
That does look tasty – I can’t try it for several more months, but I’ll bookmark it for a post-baby celebration. I love that you give the cost breakdown – my husband and I often joke that we don’t know how people can possibly become alcoholics given the high cost of alcohol (especially at bars and restaurants) – but this seems like a very reasonably priced occasional treat.
Thank you! Alcohol at bars is so expensive but they have to make their money somehow I supposed. Congrats on your bundle of joy!
ooh sounds like something Captain America might drink. I’m scared. 🙂
Wowzer! What a cost difference! Enjoy Captain America… I mean the drink. 😉
