Mojitos

by

I love mojitos! They are so refreshing in the summer or anytime you’re dreaming of warm days in the sun. Drink slowly as these are stronger than they taste!

Hot Chocolate

by

It snowed in Charleston! The kids are having a blast playing in the snow (a rare treat) and I made some hot chocolate for them to enjoying while warming up. This vegan version has only four ingredients and is ready in less than 10 minutes.

I use Ghirardelli cocoa powder in this.

Beet Kale Juice

by

When I have the time, I love to make fresh vegetable juice myself. It tastes much better than store bought ones and it gives me a burst of energy that I don’t get from pre-made ones. *Warning: objects in toilet may appear bright pink after drinking this.*
