Yum, this looks great, Do you know if it is freezer friendly?
thermofun says
Marah I haven't tried freezing this one but I would certainly be prepared to give it a try. I don't see why it wouldn't freeze well. If you do try I'd love you to let us know how it goes. TIA! :)
Cathy says
I love this recipe, and if you need to make it non-alcoholic, then use 2 drops of Peppermint essential oil instead.
thermofun says
Thanks for sharing that tip Cathy. It is a really great recipe!
