Springing forward, with a little help

It is a wonderful 75 degrees outside and yes, I do live in Texas and couldn’t be happier right now. Well maybe if I was out on the patio enjoying happy hour, I could be a little happier

With the temperatures warming up I found a couple of great drinks, originating in Southeast Asia, that are sure to spring anyone forward, even if its not 75 degrees where you are.

  • Hibiscus Cordial. Made by combining Hibiscus tea with lime juice, a sprinkle of cane and rock sugar, ginger and water.
  • Maiden’s Blush. For a nice happy hour on your own patio, combine a bottle of sweet red wine and lemonade in a large punch bowl/pitcher and add about 10 rose petals. Be sure to invite some friends to share, it makes quite a bit.

What is you favorite patio punch? How are you springing forward?
