Do you like to binge watch your favorite shows on Netflix? I do…there are so many amazing shows and movies available that it’s hard not to find something to watch. My friends and I always like to get together and either binge on our favorite shows or movies. On those days they love to sip on cocktails while we watch. If you are the same, I hope you like the following few cocktails. Or you can be like me and make mocktails.
