Justin came back from the corner store last night with these beauties – a six pack of Happy Camper IPA, brewed in Santa Fe, New Mexico! Look at that lovely New Mexican flag! And can I just mention how crazy it is to have an IPA in a CAN?! I squealed when he brought it in. Not because I’m going to drink it (I’m more of a cocktail girl), but because it’s the New Mexico flag!! On a beer!!

You shake it all up with ice, and strain it into a cocktail glass. I adore my vintage glass that I found at Goodwill… …as well as my little owl timer that my sister gave me! He’s so cute, and when the time is up, he rings very nicely, just once, then…
