Peach Lavender Shrub Mocktail *BONUS POST*
I volunteered at Happy Girl Kitchen last week. I helped prep strawberries and apples for their jams and shrub mix because some of the owners had to be evacuated due to the fires so they were behind on making items for the cafe. As a thank you- I ended up with a bottle of their peach lavender shrub and plum ;) I couldn’t wait to take this home and try it with bubbly water. I haven’t drank alcohol since May and I’ve been craving a drink other than water!
Shrub is interesting. It’s a mix of vinegar, fruit and sugar sometimes. If you haven’t had it, it’s extremely potent and usually is mixed with some other liquid. I love it. This one in particular is zingy, peachy with the hint of lavender. The lavender is very soft, but still there.
As I said in my past post, I was going to try a cinemagraph- a still photo with selective movement- I always see beverage or food companies use them for marketing new products. Taylor and I also met a lady on our honeymoon in Barcelona two years ago and she was learning how to make them and it was so interesting to me! I never had time to sit down and learn the basic process but now I do and I finished one! It took a bit to understand the process in Photoshop, but now that I know it, it’s actually very easy! What do you think?
