May 16
It?s more than just alliteration; it?s a statement, a proclamation that Thursdays are when the weekend should really start. Kicking it off right is the key, and what better way than with a cocktail that not only takes the edge off, but tastes good too. A hard thing to disagree with, we know. Drink up, get down and go to sleep happy.
For some, summer is all about lying out by the pool. For others, it?s about long and relaxing vacations at the beach. But for me, and I?m sure for many others, it?s about sun-dappled, fire-up-the-grill backyard cookouts. And one important component for any outdoor party is the frosty, iced drinks that will help keep you and your guests cool.
It?s time to break out the blender for a grown-up slushie?spiked with smoky bourbon. Orange juice, lemonade, cherry juice and bourbon are blended with ice for a pretty, pink-hued beverage that?s just sweet enough.
Bottoms up, folks.
