Taking The Stress Out Of Gluten-Free Grain-Free & Dairy-Free Living
Merry Christmas Eve
It’s 11:00….AM and I’m drinking a margarita and snacking on Christmas cookies.
Someone has to test the cocktails before Christmas brunch tomorrow! We wouldn’t want to set out a disappointing cocktail.
Food prep is well underway, the house is being straightened, last-minute gifts have been wrapped and everything outside is covered in a gorgeous, pristine white, blanket of snow. We will be having a white Christmas for the first time since moving back to Washington.
We have a lot to be thankful for this Christmas and we look forward to a happy and healthy New Year.
Blessings to you and yours and may your Christmas be peaceful and joyful and filled with the people you love. ~ April
Grapefruit Margarita
Silver Tequila
Simply Grapefruit Juice
Simply Lime Juice
Perrier
Grapefruit & Lime Slices
Coconut Sugar
Sea Salt
True Lime Crystallized Lime
I didn’t really measure….it depends on how many you’re serving. I made a big glass pitcher. I’d say about 2 Cups of tequila, 3/4 jug of grapefruit juice, and 1/2 a jug of lime juice. I made mine yesterday, so it will “marinate” in the fridge until brunch tomorrow. Then when I’m ready to serve it I’ll rim the glasses with a mixture of coconut sugar, sea salt, and the crystallized lime. Put a good amount of ice in a tumbler, fill 3/4 of the way with the tequila mixture and then top off with Perrier. Add a wedge of grapefruit and a wedge of lime to the glass.
Enjoy!

Enjoy your white Christmas. We would like a cool Christmas. It would be lovely to see temperatures in the 60’s. It is still in the mid 80’s and very humid.
