“When you look at someone through rose colored glasses, all the red flags just look like flags”

NASA and I were crazy about each other and I completely got blind sided by a couple of red flags. He told me I feel like home to him on the first date, and bought a new speaker just so he can play me the new sex playlist he created for us on our 2nd date, then he told me he loves me on our third date. As crazy as it sounds, I was smitten by his affection and 100% ignored all the red flags.

Instead of creating a red drink I wanted to create a milk clarified drink where it gives a deeper meaning. The red from pomegranate juice will go away through the milk clarification process. In terms of flavor profile, it’s sweet, floral and bubbly to reflect the beginning of the relationship where it was all new and exciting. Last, I froze some pomegranate seeds in the ice to add one last touch. Sometimes you just needed a meltdown to see the red flags were always there.
