Favorite drink for summertime
Aside from beer and wine (I make my own and got that lot covered) and hard liquor, what are your favorite summer drinks? I wanna try something new. Mostly interested in mixed drinks. Any good ones with kiwi? Recipes appreciated. And I haven't met a Mai Tai I didn't like.

Jun 14 13 10:15 pm Link Lemonade or iced tea/lemonade. (I was drinking this before Arnold Palmer's name got attached to it.) Jun 14 13 10:18 pm Link Yep, lemonade or iced tea. Jun 14 13 10:54 pm Link I looove me some Cherry Berry Chillers, wish they sold those year round Jun 15 13 12:14 am Link I like Midori Coladas or any kind of smoothie type mixed drinks. Jun 15 13 12:45 am Link Classic: Gin/Tonic  Just don't forget to squeeze some lemon juice inside + putting pieces of fresh lemon in the glass and really lots of ice! Jun 15 13 12:48 am Link Champagne Sangria: Dice some green apple, ripe mango, and oranges. Set that in a very large glass jar with a lid, and marinate with 1 btl peach cordial (Bols) and 3 btls white wine without oaky flavors. Next day, fill 1/3 glass with that mix, add ice to fill the glass, and fill the rest with champagne. Thank me soon  Jun 15 13 01:41 am Link Here's another one I like in summertime: Mix 3 parts Prosecco + 1 part Aperol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperol) and serve with ice and a peace of fresh orange in a glass.  Enjoy!Jun 15 13 03:14 am Link Emil T wrote: This shall be tried. Today. Thank you! Jun 15 13 07:53 am Link Adult beverage? Mojito. General beverage: Lemonade, made from fresh-squeezed lemons, with less sugar than most people like. Jun 15 13 08:28 am Link One-third ice-cold limeade to two-thirds cold beer - hefeweizens or porters work for me. Nothing over-hopped. Jun 15 13 09:07 am Link mojito! Never tried a kiwi mojito though Jun 15 13 09:11 am Link Caradoc wrote: Nice. I have a hefe on tap in my beer fridge, will try this out later. Thanks, and Prost!
