My friends and boyfriend keep asking me what do I want to drink on my 21st !! and I have narrowed it down to two different drinks I would like to try hahahaha THE FIRST ONE IS ::

Gummy Bear Shots/Drink



And Im also SEMI interested to Try something called a Chocolate Cake Shot ? or something like that LOL
