Regina George Mean Girls Cocktail

This cocktail is fetch! If you’ve ever been personally victimized by a “Regina George,” this cocktail is for you. It looks sweet, but once you taste it you’ll fall victim to its tang. Really, the Regina George Mean Girls Cocktail is for all to enjoy. We think your father, inventor of the Toaster Strudel, would be pleased to hear about this. #IYKYK
