Summer Drinks
I've forgotten how much I enjoy mixing drinks. I'm pretty good at it too. What is your favorite summer beverage of choice?

Bud Light or Miller Chill. If I'm in Canada one of those Smirnoff Ice coolers that are made with REAL VODKA!

--our drink this summer:
cherry vodka and soda with a twist of lime and lemon
--last summer:
light mojito (made with Splenda -- sounds awful but in proper proportions not bad at all, provided plenty of fresh mint)
--in a past life:
dirty gin and tonic (think 5 limes, chopped and muddled, in a pitcher of gin and tonic)
--non-alcoholic indulgences:
Icee (cherry + Coke); see also Slurpee
Shaken Iced Tea w/Lemonade at Starbucks (damn you SB)
Spot Slush (new convert) -

Crack the ice, seriously. Pain in the ass but gives great results.

haven't had one in a long time but maybe a frozen Stawberry Daquai ?

Favorite is still German Wiessbier. However for liquor I do love Pernod mixed with water
Dark and Stormy (Black Rum mixed with ginger beer) -
So no one likes the 007 Vesper?

Mm, I second the dark and stormy.
Last night had a "diplomat"- with some some venezuelan aged rum, stoli vanilla, and passionfruit juice. Sounds like a weird combo, but it was good. (and I hate rum).
Then had a blood orange bourbon sour.
Like a whiskey sour.
Delish.
but I drink so little these days, that that practically had me under the table. lol.
