Celebrate New Years with this Very Berry Cocktail

Wow where has the time gone? It just seems like yesterday that we were ringing in 2016 and now we are about to ring in 2017. Do you have plans for New Years? Normally my  husband has to work but this year he is taking off to spend time with me. That is one resolution that we have made to each other to make more time to be together. Since he is off, I will probably make a few cocktails to ring in the New Year. This year, our oldest can enjoy them as well. She turned 21 in September. I know it won’t be long before Mikaela will be right there with her.
