Keep it clean and be tactful with the names of the drinks. It can be a summer cooler a fall ade or a winter warmer. It can be alcoholic or non alcoholic. You choose.

Re: Happy Hour-Post your Favorite Drink Recipes
every wednesday at one of my local bars my buddies band puts on what the call drunken mic night.
it is basically open mic night with $2 cherry bombs and $2 pint draft beers.
they have Strongbow on tap there and it is one of the best testing beers i have ever had. it is technically a cider.
this night is the only night i get it since a six pack of the stuff costs close to $10

Here's my favorite "light" summertime cocktail. Haven't had one for a while!
- Crystal Light Lemonade
- Stolichnaya Stawberry vodka
Mix to taste with crushed ice, top with a splash of Sprite (or Sprite Zero) and garnish with mint.
Great drink for a hot summer day. You can make a "non-light" version with regular lemonade.
When's summer???

Oh Stace - that sounds awesome, and sounds like it might pack a "punch". That might be a recipe I'll have to bring with me when we go camping with friends. It'll keep us warm around the campfire on those chilly spring/fall nights. Thanks!

The DARK and STORMY
I got this drink recipe while in FL. Aparently it's an old drink that has faded out of popularity. I dunno why. it's tasty!
1 Fresh Lime (average size)
3 oz Dark rum or Dark spiced rum
8 oz ginger beer (ginger ale can be used as well... but ginger beer is better)
Highball glass (or any tall glass or beer mug)
Cut lime in half and squeeze the entire lime in to your glass.
Add 1/2 the lime rind to your glass
fill 1/2 way with ice
Pour rum over ice
add ginger beer/ale
stir
top with more ice as needed
NOTE: You can substitute any dark or spiced rum.
variation: you can do a 50/50 split with RUM and Gingerbeer as well (dont forge the lime)
Enjoy

Had my favorite drink tonight.
Open bottle of chilled Kendall Jackson Chardonnay. Pour into long-stemmed wine glass. Sip, & the stress & tension melts away....
LOL!
I don't know. Sounds too complicated for me.
Is it shaken or stirred? :hallo:
