We came up with a fun Christmas cocktail recipe that we call:
- 7UP
- Cranberry juice cocktail
- Your favorite lemonade
- A splash of your favorite vodka
This drink calls for 1/4 of your drink 7UP, 1/2 of your drink cranberry juice cocktail, 1/4 of your drink lemonade and then just a splash of vodka. Note: if you want to make a non-alcoholic version it tastes great, too!
Just don't add vodka :-) But if you do--please, drink responsibly.
Sidenote: I love shopping at Safeway.com! Adam and I have our groceries delivered from them all of the time. But when I need to make a last minute run down the street to our neighborhood Safeway,
I know that they will have a full isle filled with what I need!
When we made our trip to Safeway to write this blog post, I bought everything I needed to make our Happy Hour Holly Juice--including the adorable nutcracker and green platform stand featured in our photos!
If you'd like to give our "Happy Hour Holly Juice" a try, be sure to stop by Safeway.com to get your ingredients!
Merry Christmas Eve, everyone!
