It’s finally here. SPRING. Can I get a hallelujah? I’m so looking forward to all the promises spring brings. The bare tree branches and desolate flower gardens start to show signs of life. The lazy sun starts to stretch its legs and stays awake a bit longer each day. The frigid temperature finally starts to creep up in the right direction. And all these things lead to one very important thing in our house since having Olivia… being outside.
Our daughter loves being outside. In the winter, it’s just too cold most days and by the time we get home from work, it’s already dark outside anyway. Soon enough we’ll be enjoying weeknight trips to the park, endless hours playing on her swing set, and my personal favorite: firing up the grill with a cool beverage in hand.
I love entertaining throughout these warmer months. Between big family BBQs and getting friends together to pool playdates for Olivia, we are constantly having guests come by. There’s always a signature drink that I like to serve for each get together with whatever I’m cooking up, and now I have a new one to add to the rotation! These Sparkling Blueberry Lemonade Mojitos with 7UP® are beyond perfect for spring and summer and can be made in large batches for easy entertaining!
