Refreshing Spring drinks

Sparkling Strawberry Lemonade (MOCKTAIL!)

Are you ready for Spring? I sure am. It’s been a long winter (even down here in Florida where the days have been quite cool). Just to warm you up a bit and to get in the mood for the birds chirping and the flowers blooming I have a few cocktails and mocktails for your first of the year backyard party (or even an Easter brunch).
