Blueberry Lemonade - Cocktail Time!

Its news to me but I'll take it -- Vodka Lemonade's are this summer's drink (aside from Sangria of course!!) What better way to say goodbye to summer then to go out with a BANG?



This cocktail is sure to make you the hostess with the mostest (well, at least after a couple of drinks you may think so!)



As you know I don't measure anything and just pour till I think something will taste good, but trust me on this, you wont be disappointed.



Ingredients

• Blueberry Vodka (I prefer Stoli's)


• Lemonade (Crystal light works well)


• Champagne (Cristal if you have it, if not Andre will do :) and this is optional )

Directions

In an 12 oz. glass (a tall drinking glass will work fine) pour 3 oz. of Blueberry vodka (approximately 1/4 of the glass) over ice. Add about 8 oz. of lemonade (just almost to the top). Then top the drink of with a little bit of champagne. Stir if you want, mix if you want, you know your likes, but the bottom line is DRINK!

Hope this summer drink provides you with many a good time!

Cocktail Time - Sangria

In tradition of summer, what better drink is there than Sangria?! This is from my cousin Lisa, who obviously likes her alcohol because this sounds POTENT! Haha, just kidding Lisa, these portions are definitly for a party

Ingredients:

• 1 bottle red wine ( I prefer white)




• 1 bottle 7-up




• 1 bottle orange juice




• 1/2 cup brandy




• 1/2 cup triple sec




• 1 bottle Zodiac Vodka




• 1/8 cup lime juice




• 2 apples cubed




• 2 oranges sliced




• 2 cup of grapes

Mix it all together in a container that will fit that much liquid (I am definily thinking a cooler of some sort) and have yourself a summertime PARTY!

Cocktail Time

Everyone loves a good cocktail, especially me. Given my parents, the choice to enjoy cocktails was not optional, but ingrained in my blood.

This is a great simple drink created by Jef, and its a twist on a standard Vodka with soda water.

Ingredients

• Vodka (preferably Zodiac)


• Soda Water


• Pomegranate juice (preferably Pom)


• Lime cut into slices

Directions

Depending on how strong you like your drinks obviously influences the amount of vodka you usa, but as a rule of thumb I like my vodka to be about 1/4 of whatever glass I am drinking from. After pouring vodka over ice, add soda water (about 1/2 of the glass) and add about 1/4 pomegranate juice.

To make this simple vodka and pomegranate juice will be half of the drink and the other half soda water. Add lime to taste!

So there you have it, a great, classic drink with a little twist!
