Fizzy Strawberry Mocktail

February 14, 2024

The colour of this mocktail reminded me of the red Dolce & Gabbana bejeweled catsuit that Alicia keys wore during the Superbowl halftime show. All bright and sparkly and no, we are not discussing what Usher did at the Superbowl. Everything is too scripted nowadays from Television to TikTok. Are you a fan of soda? A cold sparkling drink just hits…

Spiced Apple Mocktail

December 28, 2023

A steaming bowl of soup becomes a cozy haven, churros dusted with cinnamon sugar and a mug of hot chocolate paint a vivid picture of comfort and delight.
