Hello my friends, happy Monday! With Valentine’s Day just around the corner I enlisted the help of my genius partner in crime Farra, to help me come up with a gorgeous holiday cocktail for you (and then style it out for me to photograph of course)! Isn’t it the prettiest? And the hibiscus are such a festive and delicious ingredient- I’ve never used them before but I’m now officially obsessed. Like Bubba obsessed: fried hibiscus, hibiscus kabobs, hibiscus scampi, hibiscus soup. Hahahaha! Ok, gotta get back to packing but one last thing before I do- my Joss & Main sale ends tomorrow so pop over if you haven’t already!! xx- Sarah
