The weather is finally changing, and we don’t seem to have any snow in the forecast, which leads me to look for some fun new cool drinks for the boys and me to enjoy. I’m looking forward to getting the deck furniture out in a couple of weeks to sit out there and work while watching the boys play in the backyard. You will find me enjoying the sunshine, sipping on one of three Aqua Fresca Fruit Drink flavors.

The boys and I enjoy having a cool and refreshing fruit drink, and I love that they contain real fruit and are simple to make. Fresh fruit that actually has some taste is finally hitting our stores, so I’m looking forward to experimenting with different flavors. The great thing about this aqua fresca fruit drink is that nothing is truly set in stone. Blueberries and blackberries were on sale last week, and I snagged a bunch to freeze. We also experimented with a new blueberry aqua fresca fruit drink, and it was awesome! I can’t wait for raspberries to go on sale!
