Mocha Malt Shakes are the answer to any malt lover’s craving. In our house, these are a new favorite. There’s not a thing with malt in it that my husband doesn’t love. From beer to Vimto, a sort of concentrated liquid Kool-Aid made from real juice (and found only in England and India), if it’s …

This refreshing Mojito Mocktail is just what the doctor ordered. The OB, that is! Boy, have I got a refreshing pregnancy hack for you! Now, I’ve never considered myself a “big” drinker.
