This is a dessert right? Like i’m technically having it after my dinner, which according to the laws of meal courses means I am entitled to a dessert. Also, I make desserts with berries, basil and honey (+ a few other ingredients) all the time. Therefore, I think we have concluded that this Berry Basil Margarita is dessert!
This new gorgeous hot weather makes me super pumped for summer time. There’s nothing like having a relaxing day in the sun with an icy (alcoholic) beverage to make you feel like life is THAT good. Also, i’ve just been craving a frozen margarita! After being out in the sun this afternoon I needed something to quench my thirst and help me celebrate this fantastic weather! Try out this easy recipe with any other fruit you have lying around. After all, we all deserve some dessert once in a while...
