Yet again, I had to break out more Elsie Green goodies in today’s post – and couldn’t get over these adorable cafe glasses.  They are so perfect for a little pre-dinner sip.  In honor of their cute size, I named this cocktail the “Splash”… but once you try it, you may be wanting a pool of this stuff…
