Labor Day Weekend Libations

[gr8dryv]

It's the end of summer and my wife is having a hell of a week at work. Looks like we'll be spending time on a boat and around the fire pit.
I'm looking for a refreshing concoction. Not beer or a single liquor mix, something we can make a pitcher(s) of. Whatta ya got?

 

[mpeterson]

Sangria is always a good sitting around all day drinking beverage. I'll try to find the recipe I have.

Shandy.

She's not much of a beer girl. I love her anyways

 

[H0selR0cket]

The obvious answer is margaritas.

Good thing shandy isn't beer...

We make a drink for tailgates that we call beerkanade, which is a mix between lemonade, vodka, and bud light. Can't really taste the beer, and the lemonade keeps it pretty refreshing.

We call it Skippy Punch. We add a bottle of Sprite to it. It's a great tail gate drink!

Let her try a grapefruit shandy and I guarantee she'll approve.

Heartburn??

Ha I get it whenever I drink just about anything, so yeah, pop a pill beforehand.

Summer Brew is a good one. Beer, Lemonade, Vodka.

Just some glorious Silver Bullets and maybe pick out an 6 pack of an IPA i haven't tried yet. We have a wedding to go to so the beverages will be flowing...

 

[leftyrighty]

Vodka, Ginger Ale (diet or regular), and grape drink (kool-aid, powerade, whatever)...called a transfusion and it is delicious

Pineapple Mojito's

I'm going to assume that he was looking for something that tastes good too.

This post is hilarious. Shandy isnt a beer and then makes a drink which is basically a shandy with vodka mixed in.

Did I ever call my concoction a beer?

I was merely commenting that someone who doesn't traditionally like beer might still like shandy, because it really isn't like a traditional beer.

Ha! Very true, but I figured that they might want to make it through the whole day
