When you live OP, you prioritize everything you do. Sometimes things shift around and don’t always go as planned. That’s ok. We BREATHE and know being flexible is the best thing that we can be in life.
This time of year, holiday parties and all the trimmings that go into it take front and center stage. Not to mention, when it rains it pours. In a good way! {I’ll be sharing more on this in the coming weeks! wink!} So, what do we do when it is all over? We kickup our heels with the perfect Fuzzy Friday sipper- and this one is really perfect for this occasion.
The good folks over at Real Simple have put together this easy peasy cocktail- and it is fab. And, the best thing? Only 2 ingredients!
Blood Orange Blast
1 1/2 ounces bourbon
1/2 cup blood orange juice
8 fresh mint leaves + 1 extra for garnish (if you are fancy)
Mix the bourbon and the Blood orange juice in a shaker with the mint leaves- then pour over ice in a lowball glass- garnish with the last leaf.
The blood orange is rich and aromatic, and pairs perfectly with the mint- super crisp and amazingly refreshing. It’s the perfect end to my hectic week. I am ready to CHILL!
