Art History Mocktails Recipe: The Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh

I am so excited! I just started a new series on my YouTube channel where I combine my two favorite loves in this life: art history and mocktails! And what better artwork to start with than Van Gogh’s masterpiece, The Starry Night?!

In my new art history mocktail series, I am going to be taking famous works of art, art movements, or artists and turning them into a mocktail. This week, I recreated The Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh and, I must say, it was quite a success. 🙂
