Blackberry Thyme Mojitos

Oh my frieeeeeeends, we made it to Friday!!!

Super hard on a short week, eh?

It has actually been super hard for me to focus at work this week because the weekend got me all riled up over fun summer festivities! And today I’m heading out to go camping right after work, so hoorah!

Today I have another little VIDEO for you guys! This one’s just a little quickie. A fun little cocktail recipe. What’s better in the summer than an herb simple syrup and muddled blackberries? With rum.

Nothing is better than that.

Hope you enjoy my little video, and have a marvelous Friday, my friends!!!
