Windy City Wednesday #6: Wild Flowers

It is absolutely gorgeous here in Chicago and I hope the rest of you are having just as spectacular blue skies and sun! Spring is here and I believe to stay. With the budding trees and birds a chirpin’, I am motivated to incorporate wildflowers in my cocktails and tea such as these pretty concoctions…
