Gin, always gin- well unless there’s tequila. My favorite this summer is either one with Simply Limeade on the rocks! Is it 5 yet??

Mojito, anyone? It’s not blended, but served over ice it’s truly refreshing. 1 1/2 oz. Vodka, 12 fresh mint leaves, crushed a little, 3-4 oz. club soda, 1 T lime juice and a little sugar or 1 T. simple syrup (or use 2 T. Rose’s lime juice instead of the sugar and lime juice). It’s soooo good, doesn’t even taste alcoholic! Wish i could have one!

we’re pretty simple; tequila (reposado) with limon. Maybe ice.

Or, licor de maracuya. (made and bottled in Xico, Veracruz)

What a MESS with the boat! I’ll yell a big fat F*CK for you here if you’d like.

Hi, it’s Snoskred here. I’ve recently become a blogging chick and have set myself a challenge to comment on as many Blogging Chick blogs as I can. So that’s why I’m here.

First, can I say I love the colors of your blog. It’s truly beautiful.

Second, I hope it all gets sorted out easily and without too much stress.

Third, it’s called a fruit tingle. A shot of Vodka, a shot of Blue Curacao, and a couple of dashes of raspberry cordial. Mix with lemonade. It’s a gorgeous shade of purple and tastes great.

Mix in martini shaker with ice and strain – drink!

Sugar syrup:

Meredith, that sounds wonderful. Maybe some mulling spices with it?

Leeann, that sounds much like a bahama mama. Yumm!!!!! We are totally into the flavored rums, and are addicted to coconut right now. I will have to get some pineapple when this bottle runs out!

As always, I love, love your blog. I read it every day.
I agree with you, it is so much simpler when there is less “stuff” and the kids seem freer and even happier when there aren’t so many choices and distractions.
I have a cool new gadget (pictured and written about lovingly on my blog) and my favorite drink this week is traditional but yummy- strawberry puree, shaved ice, a half a banana and at least one and half shots of pineapple Captain Morgan’s rum. Blend it up good and smooth and relax. It is lovely!

In the summer I like sangria: wine, spices and fruit over lots of ice, but I don’t have the recipe.

Bummer! I wish I could help you out with a “relaxing” recipe but the only mixed beverages I drink are mixed by someone else. Sorry. Hope they get the paperwork worked out for you soon. Very soon.
