I am a very lucky girl to have a core group of girlfriends I’ve known for many years! Now that we are all busy moms, it is vital for us to schedule a girls night out every once in a while to catch up on the latest gossip and take a break from the kiddos. Our resident libations specialist, David from our Cocktail Corner, tested and put together some fun and fruity Lipton Iced Tea inspired tasty concoctions with Lipton 100 Calorie Half & Half (Tea & Lemonade) or Lipton Diet Green Tea Honey Ginseng for our next outing. My favorite is the Exotic Fruit Tea because I love mango and lychee…yum! Here are five fabulous cocktail recipes for your next girl’s night out.
