Celebrate your favorite veteran always and forever. Inspired by my favorite US Navy sailor this sparkler of a drink contains a liqueur called Poire William. It is a pear flavored brandy that goes well with fresh ginger and some patriotic fruit colors. Top it off with some bubbly and just says “cheers”.

Wearing my Will Keys shirt today and thinking of him …Peace and Hope…
That was a great fund-raiser when we all ran/walked in celebration of him and other heroes.
What a great tribute to Will. I feel like I am getting to know him more and more. We love the Keys.
Thanks for reading and celebrating William with me. He truly loved his country.
