It's Friday!! Me thinkee we need a drinkee! Who’s with me??

I enjoyed a version of this drink at a place in Healdsburg, California a looooooong time ago called Barn Diva. I'm not sure if it's still there, I hope it is because I absolutely loved it! It had a rustic farmhouse vibe to it and their drinks were fabulous! It was filled with pineapple juice, cilantro, fresh ginger, and tequila. As soon as we got home from our trip I set out to recreate it! Jeff and I have been enjoying it ever since!
Enjoy the weekend!
Clink some glasses!
Get silly!
You deserve it!!
Here’s the drink recipe if you want to try it! The recipe makes two cocktails!😉You can garnish with a bit of cilantro and a thin slice of jalapeño if you are feeling wild!

4-5 sprigs cilantro, muddled
1/4 cup fresh ginger juice (juice your own or buy it!)
1 cup fresh pineapple juice
Juice of half a lime
1/2 cup Reposado tequila { I use Mi Campo}
Add everything to a cocktail shaker with the muddled cilantro. Shake well with ice. Strain. Top the glasses with a dash of ginger beer. Sip. Repeat.
