Celebrating The 4th With Spritzers

Happy July 4th!
What a special & important day for our country.
I can’t help but be sentimental on a day such as today.
Sharing the significance with my oldest son, Shane
makes it all the more special this year because he really gets it
& is excited to ask questions and learn.
Which is fun!
In honor of our beautiful country
I thought I would make a little celebratory cocktail for later
&
some cocktails for the kids to enjoy,
all in the spirit of today.

I have had an array of  symptoms that could have easily been mistaken for many aliments and I think that is why it has been tough to nail down.  If you are chronically tired, weak, dizzy, thirsty, lack focus, have heart palpitations, anxiety then you need to read this!!!

  2. Hey Jen! What kind of wine did you use? I have a bottle of Reisling, but I’m thinking maybe chardonnay would be yummy too?
    Thanks!
