Today’s happy hour is kind of special… it’s my first improvisation! On my way home from work last night I realized I hadn’t prepared a happy hour post, so I thought about things I had around the house. For fruit I had strawberry syrup, booze I had some vodka, to jazz it up I had a mint plant that I have not killed yet and to top it off, some club soda from my ginger ale experiments. And that’s how a strawberry mint dream was born.
The result is pretty dang tasty. It’s definitely a one drink only kind of drink because the strawberry syrup makes it a bit sweet. But I could see this being served in the backyard (if I had one) on a hot summer day. Yum!
