Cocktail Friday ~ Skinny Apple Cider Punch

Friday here!  That means it’s cocktail time!!  Yup!

I have been on a diet recently and haven’t really had any alcoholic beverages.

Because, quite frankly, if I’m gonna go on a calorie  binge, I’m not an alcohol girl, I’m more of a cheesecake girl.

But that’s why today’s drink is so great.

It’s a skinny cocktail…

I’m totally hopping on the Bethenny bandwagon.  I mean, she’s gone from Real Housewife to bagilliionairre…which is totally what I want to be.  A bagillionairre, not a Real Housewife.  Umm, well, that’s a lie..I would totally be a Real Housewife.  So, yeah…

Anyway, she has made mucho dinero on skinny drinks…and no doubt, those bottles ain’t cheap!

So why not make a skinny version at home?  Yeah, sounds like a plan.

I’m totally on my way to being a super skinny-bagillionairre-Real Housewife.  I can feel it.

This is a seasonal skinny drink, perfect for fall.
