"Happy start of summer! At least we always think it’s summer after Memorial Day! Hope you had a great weekend, we had rain most of the weekend, and will during the week ahead. ☔️ Oh well, that means I can just stay in and drink summer cocktails, right?! Like this Blueberry Basil Lemonade! Easy and a tasty combo of blueberries, gin, basil and limoncello! Cheers to summer!"
