Let’s be honest with ourselves, ok? All of us want to be kids again. Like for reals, this whole growing-up thing is SO overrated. And when I hear Pika…Pika…Pikachu! I get all sorts of excited like the little girl that heard that silliness for the first time. Yes. I am a nerd. With a nerdy inner-child. Whatever. LOL! So, this Pikachu Punch {Kid-Friendly Drink} is TOTALLY the drink my inner-child is craving. And so will real children, just FYI. LOL!
Did you watch Pokémon as a kid? I did. My brother and I can still sing the theme song together (although he probably doesn’t appreciate me sharing that–so don’t tell him). And, I love the fact that my son, now 14, totally watched it and NOW, my toddlers are going to be able to…it’s like my generation’s version of Tom & Jerry. LOL!
MY LATEST VIDEOS
And that’s exactly what had me making the Pikachu Punch. My daughters were thirsty. My son was, too. And we were watching the good-ole’ Pokémon, with little Ash Catchem and Pikachu (and Charizard) defeating a Wombat…anyway…we were all thirst. And this, this was just fun to hand to them. LOL!
Now, repeat after me: I will make this Pikachu Punch immediately…Oh, you can’t? Still at work? That’s ok. Just pin it for later and you can come back to it–it’s not like I would know the difference anyway. LOL!
