Alas, I’ve neglected to update you since the Sweet Tarts began a more sporadic posting schedule. Looks like things are back on track and so without further ado, here’s episode #6 of
Summer Lovin’
I couldn’t think of a better name for this drink. It’s light, sparkly and delish. Be sure to have some festive stir-sticks handy to make this even more summery! Summer Lovin’ Cocktail 1 oz / 30 ml freshly squeezed lemon juice 2 tsp / 10 ml sugar 2 oz / 60 ml flavoured vodka (eg., [...]
