Yay for drinks with the cutest garnishes!

My thoughts on football are as follows: If other people watching are excited about it…i’m excited about it.  It’s fun to be around people yelling at the TV and getting SO into the game.  And I’m a wee bit more into the big game this year because it’s in Houston! I will be avoiding the area and viewing the game from my sofa:)

Whether you’re into football or not, you will be into this drink.  Mainly because it has bubbly Bai (i’m all about the sparkling bubbly drinks…so FRESH!) and it has football kiwis! They are the cutest thing I’ve ever made.  I bought them on a whim and then realized they totally look like lil’ footballs.  So I piped on some white chocolate laces and BOOM…you’ve got the best garnish ever that all your big game party guests will be a fan of…bc omgsh so cute.  They’d even be great to garnish a mocktail version for preggo ladies + kiddos.

In this drink you can use ANY Bai flavor.  I used their Bogotá Blackberry Lime, Bolivia Black Cherry and Jamaica Blood Orange.  Ohh and by the way, I was perusing the Bai website and saw that they have a line called Bai Black coming out.  I haven’t seen it in stores yet, but the line will have more traditional soda flavors like root beer, ginger ale, kola, and cream.  Pumped for those and I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled for them.

Okay.  Whether you’ll be glued to the TV to watch the big game or you’ll be just watching for the commercials, I highly recommend you have a ‘Touchdown Tonic’ + a kiwi football garnish in hand.
