Healthy + Hydrating Cocktail

A few summer essentials >> cocktails and citronella bracelets.

I don't typically drink, but when I do... I make a damn good cocktail!

A lot of times drinks at restaurants are crafted with sugar syrup + juices loaded with more sugar. It sounds like the perfect recipe for a hangover...yikes!

Crafting my own cocktails gives me a chance to get creative using fresh ingredients.

See what fresh cocktail is getting this Mama feeling refreshed after Mia heads to bed!

Watermelon Mo-Tito

- A bushel of fresh mint

- 2 large slices of watermelon (cubed)

How to:

1. Add handful of fresh mint, watermelon, the juice of the lime to the bottom of a cup and muddle together.
