Hey Mommas!! What a good week it's been around here at the Momma Mojito HQ! We've been prepping for our big product release on October 1st! It's going to be here before you know it! We're so excited to show you all of these incredible items! We have some really adorable clothes, the perfect accessories to match, and of course some items that are just right for cocktail hour! Seriously, this drinkware is just too cute for words. As if you needed an excuse to get your cocktail hour going, am I right? ;)
Also on the momma front, I am finally getting on top of all my chores! We had such a crazy busy summer with weddings, travelling, tball and softball...basically you name it. It was too busy of a summer. I felt like I had no time to catch up on things around the house before school started back up again. So for this first month that the kids have been back to school, I have been hard at work catching up. And FINALLY I feel like I'm coming around. My house is clean, laundry done and put up. Crazy right? I better enjoy it while it lasts because with 2 rowdy children and 1 overgrown one (aka my husband), it won't take long before it's all destroyed again. Maybe I'll just make myself a cocktail and lay out in the sun until it's time to go pick up the kids from school. Hmm that sounds fabulous. The perfect drink for this perfect Friday afternoon -- why a moscow mule of course. Have you ever had one of these delicious cocktails? For some reason, lots of people I know haven't tried them. So then I immediately insist they must try one, and everybody always loves it. Doesn't matter if you don't like vodka or ginger beer. It's such a simple recipe but so magically tasty when it all comes together. A fabulous cocktail that comes together in a flash is a momma necessity for sure. So here it is girls--pour yourself one this weekend and enjoy all the hard work you've accomplished! Check back with us next week for another Friday Cocktail Time! :)

Momma Mojito's Moscow Mule (how's that for some alliteration?)
Ingredients/Supplies:
- 2 oz. Tito's vodka
- 6 oz. Alcoholic Ginger Beer
- Juice of half a lime
- Ice
- Sprig of Rosemary & Lime Wheel for garnish
- Copper Mug
Directions:
In your copper mug, juice your half of a lime. Go ahead and throw the lime down in the bottom of the mug when you're done juicing it because well why not. Now fill up the mug 3/4 of the way up with ice -- crushed, cubed, whatever you prefer. I like to use crushed. Now pour in your Tito's vodka. Lots of people have their own personal preference for brand of vodka. I love Tito's. I am a Texas girl after all. If you haven't tried Tito's, you should. You're missing out. Now, pour in your ginger beer. You can use non-alcoholic ginger beer if you prefer but I mean come on. You ARE making yourself a drink. Make it worth your time and use the alcoholic ginger beer. Okay with that said, give it a slight stir. Garnish it with a rosemary sprig and a lime wheel, and you are done. Drink up Momma!! You deserve it!!
