3 Cocktails to help you survive Mercury retrograde   

There are only two things that we absolutely dread here at Skinny Mixes: one is boring, flavorless beverages and the other is Mercury retrogrades. You may be thinking, “Oh come on, the Skinny Mixes team does not believe really in that kind of stuff.” Let me tell you… we DO believe in that kind of stuff! We have seen firsthand how a Mercury retrograde can cause havoc to show up right at our office door.

We have had our fair share of Mercury retrograde mishaps at the office; ranging from internet issues, to computers breaking,to orders sent to the wrong state. I am not exaggerating when I say that we have experienced pretty much every technological issue you can experience under the sun during the retrograde.

Throughout our journey with the mishaps and miscommunication, we have learned the best way to deal with Mercury retrograde is to navigate through the madness with a cocktail in hand. There comes a time when we have had to let go of the things we can’t control and unwind with a delicious, low-calorie beverage.  

Mercury retrograde is here, but have no fear as these cocktail recipes will help you get through each bump in the road! After a drink or two, you might even see that this Mercury retrograde isn’t here to harm us but is instead here to teach us to slow down and reflect… and there’s no better way to slow down than to kick back with a drink in hand!
