Lime Fauxjito

Has it warmed up where you are?? Does it feel like spring yet?? I know- seems many of us are getting a yet another little snap of winter. But I have just the thing to perk you up & get you in the mindset of spring. This Lime Fauxjito is light & refreshing & so pretty too.

It pretty simple to make ahead & let chill in the fridge before your next gathering. I know I will be serving this to my guests at our Easter celebration. I love that it’s non-alcoholic, so the kiddies & expecting moms can have some too. It allows for you to have it any time of day- which means it would be great with Sunday brunch too.
