I am so excited to present today’s dessert and cocktail pairing: Pistachio Roulade with a Raspberry Vodka Lemonade. These flavors are light and refreshing and are the perfect entrance into spring. Try them out as soon as you can and let me know what you think!

1-2 tsp. powdered sugar

  • Preheat oven to 375*F.
