Team sweet n low!

I recently got the chance to sample sweet n low. They sent me a neat package with a box of sweet n low for me, samples for my friends, and a neat pitcher (and cups with sweet n low pink logo napkins!). The plan was to have a ladies cocktail night, I ended up splitting it up into two nights, showcasing two drinks with sweet n low. The first night was alcohol-free. I invited my brother and his girlfriend (and let my boys steal a few sips). We did game night (we're big munkin zombie fans!) and shared some strawberry granita freezes. These were so good my brother and I each had two cups! My next plan is to make a wild berry smoothie based off of this recipe.

Later on the week, we planned what started as a ladies cocktail night (and ended up with a few boys present!). The plan was to make skinny-mini mojitos. The actuality was ending up with skinny-mini chocolate mojitos! My friend is a gardener and has her own farm stand. So when I messaged her asking if she still had fresh mint available-she suggested I go with chocolate mint. It smelled amazing and had a unique taste. You have to add less (I'd say maybe a half cup) as fresh mint has a much stronger taste. We also added extra lime juice. It was an interesting drink!

yum! our calorie cutting with our drinks earned us the pizza in the back ground! ;)

my baby brother is still a year away from participating--so we sent him home with some pizza and a cool sample to add to his coffee! ;)
