If you’re working through Dry January, finding fun drinks for Friday Happy Hour can be a bit more of a challenge.  But one of my favorite cocktails, the Shrub, is the perfect festive mocktail.  Here is how to make one, even if you don’t plan on watching Monty Python search for the Holy Grail.

A shrub is a concentrated syrup made from fruit, vinegar and sugar.  Making your own is a great way to use up overripe fruit, berries and stone fruits work best.  Not into culinary chemistry?  Crafted cocktails has a pack of four flavors (pineapple, ginger, pear, blackberry) and Liber & Co. has so many flavors, you will sure to find one you enjoy.  Add seltzer water, ice, and enjoy.

Want a sweater that is relaxed and cozy?  Something you can toss on over leggings and wear while you lounge on the couch?  This oversized Amazon sweater (in more colors than you can count) is the ticket.  It’s very oversized, so while the size range is 4-22, it might actually be larger.  I bought the smallest size for a size 6 frame.
