May 13: Beautiful National Fruity Cocktail Day Treats
Who doesn't love fruit cocktail? It's one of those natural desserts that everybody enjoys. It is very refreshing, not too filling, and it gives you that serving of fresh fruits that your body needs to stay healthy.
But we've decided to take a slight more adult approach to this food holiday by highlighting some of the most delicious fruit-inspired beverages (with a hint of alcohol, of course) you can enjoy with friends or at home with your family. They're fruit cocktails, just of a slightly different variety.
