Happy Monday!

Here's one for the whole family to try! A black and blue berry mashed mojito mocktail... say that 5 times fast! This week we chose to share a mocktail, an alcohol free beverage and it is soooo good! Don't worry... we have also included the swap in case you were not in the mood for a virgin drink today. :)

We hope you enjoy! As always, if you make any of our drinks, take a picture and share them with us online! Instagram ---> @ staynfocusimages

    • 2 to 3 blackberries
    • 8 to 10 blueberries 
    • 2 to 4 fresh mint leaves

  3. Next, pour in your crushed ice (1/2 Cup)

  6. Finally, add 1/2 cup sparkling water and 1/2 cup club soda
