I know that Monday was a holiday and technically this week should be flying by because it's a "short week", but for some reason that is not the case for me. I have been ready for the weekend since Tuesday! Am I alone here, or have any of you felt the same way? If I wasn't pregnant, this would have a been a cocktail heavy week for me, starting with one of my sparkling lavender lemonade's!
I'll be honest, this cocktail almost didn't happen. Between moving next week and everything else going on including being exhausted, I was reallllll close to letting the ball drop on this week's Thirsty Thursday. It was between my daily nap and shooting this cocktail. But...I couldn't let you all down, so here you go, because that's how much I love you! Today I whipped you up the tastiest and easiest skinny margarita!
It's almost summer and I know most of you are watching those figures, but there is absolutely no reason that you can't still enjoy your happy hour. My three ingredient margarita is low calorie and will leave you with no guilt and on the right track with your diet.
Summer is coming to a close, and while I'm beyond ready for a touch of fall weather, I am not ready to give up refreshing cocktails on a hot day. And I might not. This week has been strange because I started my week on Tuesday after getting back in town on Monday and my whole week has been thrown. A great cocktail is always needed on weeks like these and this cucumber mint cocktail with honeysuckle vodka is going to get me through to the weekend.
I have a new obsession with Cathead Vodka's Honeysuckle Vodka. It's perfect to make a light and tasty drink and can be mixed with as few or many ingredients as you like. It's also really good with just club soda and lime. Nothing wrong with that at all.
Sometimes I like to be fancy though.
I am a cucumber in my cocktail kind of girl and thought that the flavor combination would pair nicely with the honeysuckle notes of the vodka. I was right. I also added some fresh mint and lemon juice and the result was a super refreshing drink that I think you are going to love!
I hope you aren't tired of Thirsty Thursdays around here. I love starting my weekend a day early with a yummy cocktail, and I'm pretty sure if we are friends, you do too.
Cucumber. Mint. Lemon. Honeysuckle. Booze. Yes. I'll take two.
