And although we can't make everything ourselves, fortunately grenadine is fairly simple! We've been having warm weather, but it's quite pleasant at the moment - in the 70s (F).

It's really amazing how we trust the food and drink industry so much - and we can't spend all our days only using organic food, no matter how great it would be - but then there's always something like that happening. It reminded me of the discovery, a few months ago, that many lasagnas in Europe contained horse's meat instead of cow's meat.Alexhttp://trendingrecipes.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4249095902319557066.post-61308408408995997872013-06-30T09:54:14.776-05:002013-06-30T09:54:14.776-05:00Hi Raymund, I'm still not where I want to be, ...Hi Raymund, I'm still not where I want to be, but I'm getting there. ;-) Thanks for the kind words, and comment.Kitchen Riffshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09334461438904669081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4249095902319557066.post-58608542923343112252013-06-30T09:53:27.045-05:002013-06-30T09:53:27.045-05:00Hi Maureen, wouldn't that be nice? ;-) Alas, u...Hi Maureen, wouldn't that be nice? ;-) Alas, unlikely to ever happen - but you can cheer yourself up by having one of these!

Yet I think this cocktail would be made with any kind of rum here without that anybody would realize. They would get an empty Bacardi bottle, fill it with some regular white rum and fool drunkards like that. <br /><br />I love the color of your bacardi cocktail, it's stunning and makes me want to have it now. =)Helene Dsouzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03057062918520263294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4249095902319557066.post-3751047776709521862013-06-28T18:03:07.665-05:002013-06-28T18:03:07.665-05:00Hi Kim, it is indeed pink!
