PIMMS CUP CUPCAKES

A classic beverage for Wheels & Wickets is pimms cup mixed with lemon lime soda, and garnished with cucumbers and mint. I wanted to incorporate the flavors into cupcakes for dessert and found this recipie that worked great, it's from another blog so that's a bonus, I'm all about supporting fellow bloggers! I garnished them with a little sparkle and colored the frosting slightly orange so they wouldn't look identical to the mimosa cupcakes. This was a fun new recipie and I am happy I tried it out, it's always fun to incorporate an interesting new flavor that you don't use often. Besides, cooking with alcohol spices things us! Enjoy :)
