INSPIRING PEOPLE TO LIVE SIMPLE YET FULFILLED AND NOURISHED LIVES

spruced up and dandy gimlet

Well, as promised, I put all those spruce tips to work and came up with this lovely little spring cocktail!  I was even able to incorporate the Citrus Spiced Dandelion Bitters I finished making last week!  Together they make a cocktail that’s light, refreshing, and just delightfully earthy!  I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

    You need to find Suze Liqueur! http://postprohibition.com/liquor-cabinet/suze/
    We purchased it for the first time a few weeks ago and it is like drinking wildflowers. The tiniest bit added to any cocktail is divine.
