Have A Happy Midsummer!

The Midsommer Eve (or Juhannus in Wikipedia)is the manifestation of summer for the Finns. Traditionally we always try to guess in advance how many Finns get drowned during the Juhannus celebrations (from Friday to Sunday), which are in many ways "not dry". So far the count is 3 this year.
It has been warm but cloudy all day, with heavy expectation of rain. When I finally made it to our BBQ place and started to prepare our Juhannus meal, rain started pouring.
This is ice cold Limoncello garnished with basil. The more traditional Juhannus drink would probably be Koskenkorva or as we Finns say, Kossu.

Hauskaa Juhannusta Kaikille!
