Coconut Strawberry Rum Shrub or Shrub Me the Right Way

We love it when customers share their recipes with us, both in person or through social media. This recipe comes from Tamu Curtis of Liberate Your Palate.  I don’t think I could come up with a more perfect drink to celebrate the beginning of summer. This one has all the important flavors. If you are in the Charlotte area check out their mixology classes for a fun date night or to plan a private group gathering. The classes are tons of fun and quite informative taking the mystery out of different cocktails.
