THESE THREE DRINKS will keep you high and happy while waiting for Spring. Well, waiting for 4/20. It can be a long wait - may these recipes help pass the time.
I’ve become quite attached to garnishing drinks with a cool rim job. Lol. I love the flavors as an introduction to the flavor palate of the drink.
