Let's talk guilty pleasures. We love eating ice cream straight out of the carton, hitting snooze one too many times, catching up on celebrity gossip, the list could go on and on. But our biggest guilty pleasure is watching the drama unfold on The Bachelor/Bachelorette series. Who doesn't like watching hunky guys fawn over a single girl? And this season's guiltiest pleasure in two words: Juan Pablo. Muy caliente! Every week we set aside two hours to indulge in the show, and we can't help but provide our own running commentary on the side. Even Dr. S joins in on the fun (shhh..don't mention this to him!).
We've come up with the perfect cocktail to serve at the many viewing parties around the country. This cocktail was inspired by that iconic rose. We can't wait to see who (if anybody) gets the final rose on Monday's season finale!
No, Brooks, no!
