No picnic would be complete without a cool, refreshing beverage. The recipe for today comes from COOKING WITH PAULA DEEN and includes an idea for a drink mix that can be sent home with guests to be made later. Paula includes a label that can be downloaded and printed for the drink mix jars that includes the recipe for the drinks. Great idea for the hostess with the mostest!
