This is it...there are only two more days left of 2014. Every year I say the same thing, but seriously I blinked and the year is over already. We have only two days to finish the year with a bang and with meaning. Two days before diets start, new year resolutions begin, and we are all a year older. And if there were ever a time for you to make a festive drink, tomorrow would be it. New Year's Eve gives us all an excuse to drink as froo froo of a drink as we want and it should definitely involve some type of sparkling wine or champagne whether you usually go for the bubbles or not. My lemon ginger twist is easy enough for a party and is perfect for watching the ball drop.
Pumpkin Latte, Smumpkin Latte...give me the salted caramel mochas at Starbucks any day. I know they are horrible for me...but they only come around once a year and I can't resist a salty and sweet combo...so sue me. I get 'em every chance I can during the months of November and December and half of the time I don't even ask for skim milk (gasp). I was talking with a friend who is equally as obsessed as I am and we mentioned how some bourbon would the perfect addition for a holiday after dinner drink! Challenge accepted...and I present to you, at home bourbon salted caramel mochas!
You know how after a big holiday meal, you really want dessert but there really isn't that much room left in your belly and then you end up eating that piece of pie anyway and your stomach hates you for the next two hours and your pants feel like they might decide to pop open at any second? Yeah..I know that feeling, it happens a little too often during the holidays.
