We’ll make two color-changing drinks (hibiscus iced tea and “butterfly breeze”)\, and then we’ll play with density to create a fruity rainbow mocktail. All of the recipes will be nonalcoholic\, but we’ll talk about how you can create boozy versions too.  \n\n\n\n\nRegister Online\n\n\n\n\nWear clothes you don’t mind getting messy.
