Mommy Needs A Drink

I love summer don't get me wrong, but holy heck is it hot.  Not just that but our social calendars are all packed, and mommy attends every one's obligations.  Trying to make everyone happy and involved is killing me!  When I get a hot second with my gal pals, or the end of the day when the babies are all sleeping, mommy wants a cocktail.  

If you've ever grabbed a drink with me you probably know my drink of choice is raspberry (or blueberry for summer) vodka with sprite zero... my friends and family have dubbed it "The Samantha" and they are all on the bandwagon.   Many of you also know I am trying to be a little healthier so I decided to ditch the diet soda in an attempt to do that while also being able to indulge in an evening lifter.  

If I have to be healthier I might as well make it fun, so to jazz things up I  grabbed some coconut vodka and watermelon lemonade seltzer.  I then tossed in some frozen watermelon and fresh mint leaves I have kicking around for infusing water to stay hydrated throughout the day.  Guys, it is literally so good!  Smells like vacation, tastes like vacation, and is super low cal - 133 calories per 1.5 oz serving of vodka and the seltzer is zero calories.   I've been serving these up to my ladies and they are a major hit!  You could even use a drink dispenser for a party,  I might just have a party just to serve them up!

Mix up a batch of these, by eyeballing the ingredients because ain't no body got time to measure things, or do extra dishes!
