Others think it's just a made up Holiday by American alcohol companies to sell more product... All are kind-a right! Here's a brief history of the Holiday and how it has become one of the largest growing Holidays on the calendar....

Only 3 ingredients and nothing fake, neon green, or full of sugary chemicals in sight. They're tart and sweet enough, but not too sweet, and go down incredibly easy. I use freshly squeezed lime juice and recommend doing so. Agave is sold in nearly all grocery stores and big box retailers, although I've used honey in a pinch.... )

This easy to make recipe for Italian Vegatable Soup is sooo Good you won't believe it's healthy. 
Pure alcohol is very high in calories. For instance Everclear has 226 calories per 1.5 oz and is 190 proof (95%) alcohol, the rest basically is water. Technically Everclear is the lowest calorie alcohol if you compare it to the alcohol percentage.
