Vanilla & Hazelnut Sparkling Mocktail: #BluelandPartner Blueland’s Holiday Hand Soaps are such a fun swap because they allow me to still partake in fun seasonal scents, but without any harsh chemicals, phthalates, dyes, or parabens. You all know I only want the best for my family’s hands (especially this winter)! I’ve swapped out our hand soaps for their plastic-free formulas and swapped out a festive cocktail for this delicious spritz inspired by Blueland’s Toasted Vanilla scent. RECIPE HERE Make a simple syrup: Add 1 cup filtered water, 1/2 cup maple syrup, 3 star anise, and 5-6 cloves to a pan. Heat over medium-low until the mixture has thickened - about 5-10 minutes. Add in 1/2 tsp vanilla extract and 1/4 tsp almond extract. Cook another 2-3 minutes to burn off any alcohol in the extracts. Assemble: Combine about 2 tbsp simple syrup and 1/2 cup hazelnut milk. I like to add it to a jar with an ice cube and shake it. Pour over crushed ice and top with sparkling water. Enjoy! #health #wellness #holidaydrinks #cleanliving #betterforyou
