Labor Day Fun and Food

Tomorrow is Labor Day typically filled with family, friends, food and drink.  We gather in the hot sun in the backyard with the grill fired up and pool floating.  I strive to make a variety of food or have it be potluck style.  There is always beer and cocktails flowing but this year I want to make some fun hydrating mocktails.
