Been making a non-alcoholic fruit drink.

Blackberries smashed up with a wooden spoon
Fresh squeezed lemon
sugar in the raw
muddled mint leaves to release the oils
club soda and ice

Very refreshing and delicious!

That recipes is way too much effort. I just use Sweet Tea Vodka & Lemonade, pour over ice. And it's called a John Daly, btw.

It is some work, but it is worth it when you make up a big batch for yourself and friends. I kind of like cooking and making drinks, so I guess it doesn't bother me to put in some effort

Got to use the right gin...Sapphire and lemonade is outstanding but from a price point is a waste. I prefer to use Gordon's or if you want to go even a little cheaper Gilbey's isn't bad either.

All seem to work good, seems to work a bit better if the lemonade is a bit sweeter to balance out the gin. Minute Maid is pretty good for this mix, Simply Lemonade works well too. You don't need to go expensive on this drink, its meant to cool you off and get you blasted so I mix them pretty strong Summer beverage of choice?  969504605

Ya, I have to be careful with vodka lemonade, it just goes down too easy. I'll also make frozen lemonade and vodka in the bullet using lemonade concentrate.

I don't care so much about the fruit. Is your choice of beer.

I love good gin straight from the freezer with good cheese. Those idiots drinking wine with cheese don't know what they're missing

I'll have to give that a try. I'm a fan of wine, too, but not as often during summer months. I've never been a wine & cheese guy, but I do love good cheese--the kind with crunchy salt crystals.

Like hard or semi-hard cheeses best with gin. Raw milk cheeses whenever I can find them

You should reach out to tTy for a copy of his spreadsheet template to keep an accurate count. But you first need to convert 400 to 400.0000000000000.

I've noticed scratchy throat stuffed sinuses from drinking miller products. Maybe I'm allergic to something they use.

I only had 1 miller lite. Other than that it was vodka and V8 Splash orange and carrot juice.
