Cheers *Clink*: The Acai Caipirinha

Caipirinha - The official drink of Brazil made with cachaca (basically a Brazilian rum), sugar and lime juice.

If you're like me you had never heard of a Caipirinha until now.  I learned about this drink last week at work and it looks AMAZING!  Sadly I can't try one yet (you know, Whole30 and all) but everyone that makes them raves about how great they are for summer.  Instead of giving yall a typical Caipirinha recipe, I wanted to switch it up for you.

I give you, Cedilla Acai Liqueur.

There are 500 acai berries in 1 bottle of Cedilla so it's going to be really acai-y.  Not only is this drink delicious (i'm taking my co-worker's word for this since I can't try it) but acai berries have tons of antioxidants!  A cocktail that's healthy?  BONUS!

Try one this week and let me know what you think!

My Wish List

Recently I have had the biggest urge to make purchases.  Now I'm not talking about purchases like dresses and shoes.  I ALWAYS have the urge for these things.  I'm talking stuff for my house, stuff for the summer, and a bunch of other random things.  Unfortunately, I don't have a birthday coming up anytime soon so it looks like I'll be waiting for my fairy godmother to drop these things in my lap.

#1 Imagine Print Set

I found this on Suzanna Anna's Etsy Store last summer and fell in LOOOOOVE!  I move into a new house in August and I think this would be perfect in the hallway.

#2 Tumblers

I found this one here and love the chevron print.  But really these days, any tumbler will make my heart flutter.  BONUS ladies: you tend to drink more liquid when you have a straw.  This is sure to help you reach your daily goal of water intake.

#3 Cup Case

I was first introduced to these handy dandy organizers by one of my favorite blog ladies Pink Lou Lou!  Since then I feel like they've been popping up everywhere!  You can use Cup Case to pack everything from your bras and swimsuit tops to your jewelry and hair accessories.

#4 Dawson's Creek Complete Series DVD

I don't really feel like this need explanation.  Pacey Witter, I am still waiting for you.

#5 A new cooler

I would love if it was one of these precious Marley Lilly coolers!

Soooo I will continue to sit with my fingers crossed until some sweet soul drops these off on my door step.
