My favorite summer drink is sweet tea vodka with lemonade. It’s an Arnold Palmer with a kick and it tastes like summer to me, especially if its served in a mason jar.
My favorite summer drink is a beergarita (*sp) It’s sweet, but awesome! It’s exactly what the name sounds like. A margarita made with beer. Yum!
My favorite summer drink is sangria! There are so many fun twists you can put on it like my fave: Mango Peach!
Would love one of these fab books! Thank you!
My favorite summer time drink may sound a little boring but it is light and tasty! Grey goose with soda and LOTS of lime.
Yumm-o!!
I love a good rum runner on the rocks!!
Favorite summer drink….Absolut Wild Tea, St. Germaine, Iced Tea and fresh lemon! Deliciously refreshing!
my favorite summer drink is a pisco sour! yummmm!
Always sangria! We make a red one and the secret is Apple & Eve’s Elmo Juice fruit punch! Always makes me laugh…
Anything with infused booze. My current favorite is strawberry-infused vodka mixed with sprite. It’s sweet with an intense strawberry flavor.
My favorite summer drink is a Margarita! The salt with the fresh lime juice & tequila.. it’s a summer must!
Sangria with fresh fruit is one of my favorite spring/summer drinks. Although, margaritas are a close second!
My favorite is the Watermelon-Coconut Cooler.
I like Mojito’s, but would love to try a watermelon version!
