TOP FIVE Summer Drinks
By Laurel Felt
Hot summer weather means you gotta hydrate -- to suggest otherwise would be irresponsible. And we can't have that. so wet your whistle with these these cool concoctions: 1. Punch spill 7-Up into a punch bowl, add some classic juices (orange, apple, lemon), and don't forget the fruit slices (strawberries, apples, pears, oranges, cherries). in a word: refreshing.
party time = SANGRIA: add red wine or Calvados & Cointreau 2. Fruit Juice stick with the standbys (pineapple, cranberry), splurge on exotics (pomegranate, tangerine, orange-guava-passion-fruit, or blend your own out of summer's freshest fruit (watermelon, black-, blue-, and raspberries).
party time = MARTINI: add melon liqueur, vodka, and/or rum 3. Iced Tea keep it traditional or celebrate the season with mango, jasmine green, or orange-and-spicy Constant Comment.
party time = LONG ISLAND: add vodka, tequila, rum, gin, triple sec 4. Smoothie break out the blender and load it with fruit, ice and/or milk (cow, soy, rice, almond), and go to town.
party time = DAIQUIRI: add coconut rum, Creme de Cassis, or banana liqueur 5. Water ain't nothin like the real thing, huh? except, of course, the filtered, enriched, and mineral varieties.
party time= FANCY WATER: add mint and/or cucumber, lemon, or orange slices
