These drinks are so good I was floored when our family friend Vin made these for us during our many times hanging out together. I am a wine drinker, always have been. I’ll drink a beer here and there and am notorious from turning down any kind of cocktail. Basically, I am hard headed! hahaha

But when Vin started making these for us, I found myself very happily accepting the drinks because of the ingredients I saw him use. This is why I wanted Vin and his wife Kara to come over and make a couple of cocktails I could share with you. These are the ones we chose and I am sure you will be loving them as much as I do.
