We are all friends here, yes? YES!

So I must confess to you all that I write this blog post amongst a house that looks like it may or may not have been looted.

Clean laundry baskets waiting to be folded (who has time to fold?), ribbons and gift bags–in total random places for gifts I started to wrap and a full counter of baking supply for cookies the 2,425 cookies I attempted to bake twice this past weekend.

Every year without fail, my holiday prep/shopping game starts off STRONG– and then something happens around Dec. 19th-ish….Panic sets in and the hours vanish like a thief in the night, as I make my “last minute to-do/shopping list” …. Do I have an even amount of gifts for each of the kids???…..Wait, that’s all I got my MOM!?!?…. Have to prep those appetizers too!”

In short, my friends… it’s time for a drink!

And you’re in luck because I have THE PERFECT one! Call it a holiday punch with cranberries, or a holiday spiced up Sangria… I call it, delicious!

If you are searching for new holiday drink this year, I highly recommend this one.

It has all the things a great holiday drink should have–a little sweetness, a little cinnamon spice and a great blend of fruits– I mean it’s basically grown-up  fruit salad in a glass 😉
