The Usual.

I wish I could take credit for THE PERFECT COCKTAIL but I can’t. The credit goes to a friend – who got it from her friend, and now I am passing it on to you, friends!

 Let me start off by saying I love wine. I crave my buttery chardonnay in the summer and spring. On chilly fall and winter nights, all I want it a big glass of yummy red wine. However, wine and I are kind of having a break-up. It just makes me feel so tired and kind of gross the next day. Is it the sugar, the tannins?

 So this amazing drink doesn’t make me feel that foggy, groggy feeling the next day and I think you’ll love it too.

 Here ya go, it’s not complicated:

 1 glass with ice

1 shot of vodka

Fill the rest of the glass with water

Squeeze 3-4 slices of lemon into the drink

Enjoy!

So you probably get it now:

NO sugar is the key

Vodka – obviously everything in moderation but did you know that there are health benefits to vodka, including being a hair and skin enhancer?

Water – hydrating as you drink, perfect!

Lemon – the benefits of lemon go on and on. For one, lemons are good for your liver. Sounds pretty good when you are drinking alcohol right? They are also rich in vitamin C and alkalizing for your body. We all need more lemons in our life!

MAJOR BONUS: 1 shot of vodka is 64-80 calories so this drink is VERY low calories.

SO hey if you are using the best in natural facemasks – Mantra Mask of course – why not have the most natural alcoholic beverage too!

Once you start with this drink, I have a feeling it will be your new “usual” too!
