Springtime cocktail

It was almost 60 degrees today in Chicago. We haven't felt that kind of weather in an uncountable number of days! It'll be back to below freezing again within a day or so, but until then let's celebrate with a spring drank.

Normally whiskey is my wintertime drink of choice, but the addition of St Germaine and lemon take this cold-weather liquor to a warm(er)-weather cocktail.



Happy Spring! Can't wait until this weather stays and I can walk around without a coat once more.

Buen Provecho,
Jacqueline
