\nWe have been having our share<\/a> of warm spring air, pretty flowers & nascent green leaves against the blue blue sky (although it seems to have wandered off for the past week, & the nasty cold has butted it’s ugly head again). I have been enjoying the outdoors with my kids, the smell of the freshly mowed grass & humming “The spring is in the air\/I’ll see lovers everywhere\/I’m singing a song…..<\/em>” to myself. I also have been thinking Pink.<\/p>\n

I thought of plain & simple The Pink Drink<\/strong>, & the playful The Pink Wink<\/strong>,\u00a0 & even the elusive Pink Dream. <\/strong>But there had been pioneers before me, all those pinks were already taken. That meant\u00a0 I had to think again….Well\u00a0 now that\u00a0 & I named my drink The Pink Breeze<\/strong>, (How is that?), I think I would definitely be more inclined to try out The Pink Breeze<\/strong>, instead of sipping\u00a0 Pink Panties<\/a>, or the Pink Elephant<\/a>, Or even a Pink Squirrel<\/a>…<\/p>\n

While I had been researching names, the master mind behind this pretty pink concoction is actually my better half.\u00a0 With the uprising of the strawberry baskets in the stores during the season, he gently blended in the tropical flavors of the Pina Colada… & here we have for you the The Pink Breeze<\/strong>! or call it just a\u00a0 Pinkolada<\/strong>\ud83d\ude42

\nFor the lovers of alcohol & also the non lovers, we have presented here 2 versions of drink. Enjoy it as a cocktail in your next outdoor party ( & of course indoors) … or just serve it as a mocktail. It’s for everyone… And who else would I share this PINK POST\u00a0 with but the FIC:PINK\/ROSE<\/a> hosted by Priya, & the brainchild of Sunshinemom of the Tongue Ticklers<\/a>.
