It's going to feel like a hundred degrees today and my husband wants to grill out...that means mama needs a cocktail. Something light and refreshing sounds great. Today's drink is Mama Needs a Cocktail Blueberry Lemonade. When trying to name it this was the only thing that came to mind. On a day like today where it is going to be this hot the only acceptable option has to be a lemonade. This is a simple one, so go ahead and give it a try.
