Looks yummy – but I can’t have anything that has alcohol due to the meds I take for my heart. Darn! So enjoy the recipes and your comments, Lisa.

Can you make this drink in a pitcher and have it nice and cold for guests. We love it. Just had our first one!
Yeah! That should work. I would just wait to add ice until served then. Glad you enjoyed it!
