Make It: Rhuby Minted Crush

Posted by Aleah & Nick on Friday, June 8, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Yum. Yum for a couple of reasons. First off, the weekend is officially here {though for us it means lots of work, albeit splendid, and some poolside action for good measure}. Secondly, we’re sharing the last of our oh-so delicious recipes we developed for RUE Magazine and we think you’ll just love it. It’s perfectly summer and quite refreshing. It would be a wonderful cocktail to whip up for a neighborhood BBQ or for a breezy summery wedding.

What is on your agenda for the weekend? Whatever you do, we hope it’s just fantastic!
