“If you like Pina Coladas, getting caught in the snow…”
I know I have been gone for a while, but I had to give my mind a mental break. Heck, truth be told, I am still allowing my mind to relax and replenish so I can carry on the work load of maintaining a blog, working a regular 9-5 , maintain relationships, and finding time for myself. I have to find my balance with these things once again. If you don’t take any advice from me, let me tell you one thing, if you ever decide to create a book (e-book or hardback), make sure you put yourself on a set timetable so you don’t get overwhelmed. I didn’t do a good job at that necessarily. This lead me to be completely brain pooped. I do plan on working on another book in April and trust me, I will be on a set schedule.
Sooooo, if you are live in the Midwest or Eastern side of the USA, then I don’t have to tell you how cold it is. I also don’t have to tell you to shovel the snow in your driveway’s. Chances are you’ve done that already. If you are in a warmer climate, at this time, I envy you because I would love to lay out on a beach or be able to walk outside only needing a lite jacket. Right now, that isn’t the case. Especially then its -14 Degrees outside. There is absolutely nothing I can do about this weather we are having. However, what I can do is trick my mind to thinking that I am warmer that I actually am. That method starts with these Strawberry Pina Colanda’s.
There are a few things I really like about this Pina Colada.
- It has the fiber and nutrients from the fruit so it makes it kind of healthy.
- It is super refreshing.
- The rum is incredible.
- Its pretty.
Everything you need to make for a summer fun cocktail. The most important element of a summer-fun drink is the alcohol that goes along with it. I am not a huge fan of rum. It has a spice taste that make me not a big fan. However, this rum by Blue Chair Bay, makes me happy and really makes this drink incredible! This line of rum has the following flavors
- White Rum
- Coconut Spiced Rum
- Coconut Rum
- Banana Rum
With these flavors I am sure that you guys can come up with a refreshing drink to make your winter real hott! In fact, I am going to give someone an opportunity to own a bottle of the rum to create some amazing cocktails. Answer the question below to enter the giveaway!
