Food Friday: Simple Summer Mocktails

Hey Bee's! Been awhile, I know, I know! But the hive is still buzzing about and these summer mocktails are as sweet as honey so I had to share!

(So sorry for the cheesy puns, I genuinely can't help myself)

Anyways, it is MAY! Eek! How is time passing so quickly?

As a sober girly forever and always, but also a girly who adores fun drinks, I'm dedicating this summer to fun & frilly mocktails! I can't take all the credit here though, my momma is a mocktail girly through and through so I've taken some inspo from her and had her help out with the recipes here!

Recently I've been obsessed with four specific ones, so I'm here to share them you all today.

As always, if you try out this recipe, share it through Instagram, @beeramagazine! I love seeing people try things I've created, its just a beautiful representation of how interconnected we all are and I love it <3
