Do you ever catch yourself daydreaming about the perfect tropical getaway? Maybe you imagine yourself lounging beachside, crystal clear waves rolling slowly in and out just beyond your sandy toes, and a refreshing, ice-chilled drink (complete with a mini drink umbrella) in hand….

Because—same…

While we wish we could book us all that dream vacay, corporate says it’s not in the budget (something about “misappropriating funds” or something—boo!). So, while we work on getting management on board with "Operation Tropical Vacation", we’ll share a fun and fruity cocktail featuring fan favorite, JUST Watermelon Bubbles.

With a taste that’ll transport you straight to the tropics, this Sparkling Watermelon Margarita is the ultimate staycation in a sip.
