Christmas is 12 days away! I repeat, 12 days away! AHHHHH. I mean I’m so excited for it, but I also have about a bajillion things on my to-do list to get done before we go to my parents house next weekend! I feel like I am alway so excited for the holidays and then BAM it’s over in a flash! I wish we could just pause the actual week of Christmas and put it in slow motion so we could soak it up just a little bit more! Things like soaking up time with friends and family, savoring good food, and sipping festive cocktails! My meyer lemon bourbon mule is one of those cocktails that you should definitely be sipping during all of your holiday festivities!
I am stuck somewhere in the middle of needing fall to be here yesterday and not wanting to let go of summer and all of it's produce. Don't get me wrong I am beyond ready to feel the weather shift because this 95 degree business isn't cutting it for me! But, I also hate to say goodbye to long days, my favorite produce, and sun-kissed skin. To help get my mind in fall mode, I created a spiced pear bourbon old fashioned cocktail in partnership with Drizly.com, a website where you can have your favorite alcohol delivered right to your front door!
