Want to know the best way to start off the weekend?

Champagne.

After seeing Jessica’s triple berry mojitos yesterday I was inspired.

Inspired to finally make simple syrup for myself.

Inspired to puree fruit in a blender.

And mostly, inspired to drink.

After a 7 day work week, I think I deserved it.

I didn’t think ripe summer fruit could get better than it already is but, I was wrong.

Champagne tends to have that effect on things.

Want to pretend you’re on vacation on a tropical island? Make this.

Need to drown out the 10 neighborhood kids screaming for 5 hours straight as they jump in the pool? Again, a strawberry nectarine bellini won’t let you down.
