Happy Friday! 🥃
Welcome to another week in the books! I hope you have some generous hospitality planned with friends and/or family this weekend! That is pretty much the whole point of using clear ice: To become a better host!
I spent the earlier part of this week in the mountains of New Hampshire sitting around a campfire and drinking clear ice out of my Yeti Rambler. If you don't have one of those yet, get on it!
