To all my fellow bad mom's, I wanted to share this **close dupe that I found at the grocery store this evening! I'm a sucker for White Claw and have especially enjoyed sitting on the patio the way our weather has been lately. While I'm most excited about our BFP, I've definitely missed my patio habit. Well, not anymore! These gave me a small indulgence & thought I'd share! I will be trying the other flavors, for sure!
oOO, I love bai -- their coconut flavored drink was one of my favorites! I'll have to check this out; for me, drinks MUST be sparkly!
