OT: Refreshing Summer cocktail suggestions.

[formerlurker]

I just got done mowing the lawn. It's so oppressively hot my balls are sticking to my thighs like bats wings.

I'm a Jack & Coke guy but looking for a more heat friendly drink tonight. Gin & Tonic?

There's less chance of me mashing fresh mint than me actually having fresh mint in my fridge. Mojitos are not an option.

 

[Doggie Style]

I'm glad you clarified about the mojito, bcuz I was about to post a recipe with the addition of fresh blueberries that I picked up in a class in San Juan last month...... It was hot as balls though... I was at a B-day party that had 4 coolers each filled with beer, juice for the kids, water, and soda. The water cooler was empty by 2pm and even though I gave it a good effort, the beer cooler was only 3/4 gone by 7pm. When the hell does that ever happen ?

Bulldog gin and tonic, with lime.

 

[wethyhusky]

Plymouth gin and lemon pellegrino. Awesome

 

[J187Money]

I'd go with a Starbucks refresher and then scotch once I've cooled off. G&T goes down smooth but after a couple of them you will regret it.

Not sure how old you are but it keeps getting worse as your crew keeps having more kids.

Our parties used to be about ice luge shots of Jager, full contact chicken fights in the pool and ultimately, someone's girlfriend scissor kicking the hot tub jets while flashing her kerbangers.

Now? It's a suburban mix of gossip that ranges from who made the best deviled eggs to which kid just tested "off the charts" as being perfectly fcking perfect.

Sucks getting old.

Bourbon and grapefruit juice is my go to vacation drink. It's a little odd at first, but nothing beats some Old Grandad and Ruby Red over ice.

Ha! Nice...

This being CT try Onyx Moonshine and any of the standard vodka or whiskey mixers.

I've had a few already so not able to head out for supplies. This little mix has intrigued me though, thank you.

 

[Chin Diesel]

I didn't believe it til I tried it but......

Ocean Spray Ruby Grapefruit juice and Sailor Jerry Spiced rum is phenomenal.

If you are still working you're way up to Sailor Jerry, Captain Morgan is a good substitute to build up your tolerance.

 

[Chin Diesel]

If you are going the beer route, Shiner Ruby Redbird is very refreshing.

 

[CAHUSKY]

Not true. Just when you get married and have kids. I still attend many parties with the flashing of "kerbangers" in the hot tub and im an old (single) bastard.

I'm 25 and haven't been to any kerbanger flashing fiestas since college????

Yes, but while everyone is watching you flash your "kerbangers" they're all wishing you'd put back on your shirt.

I love ya like brother CA but if you're an old single bastard, there's a real strong chance those are dreams, not parties.

 

[BoatShow]

I'm liking this kerbangers word. Free Rolling Rock if you flash kerbangers at my tailgate this fall.

That's funny. The guys water jug is almost completely filled up with tabs from (probably) cans of beer.

It's one of those pictures that if you don't look around you miss the funniest parts.

Also, check out the top left. He's such a bad planter that he needs a rope to keep the tree straight in the pot.

A fat guy who drinks lots of beer. priceless.

Judging by the responses in this thread it sounds like i need to invite some of you guys out to Reno/Tahoe for a weekend.

Not old enough to confuse the two yet but probably not too far away

 

[huskypantz]

Went to Margarita's after a day at Nantasket Beach and had a coconut and lime frozen margarita with Sauza. Damn that was good, except for the brain freeze. Otherwise I'm a TnT guy.

I'd have to guess that twenty-something year old flashing her kerbangers is significantly hotter than a 50 something year old doing it. Maybe not though.

Hmmn, it is taking considerable self-discipline for not typing "I'm in" right now. Particularly since I need to head out that way on business within the next couple of months.

Why do you suspect the ones I'm seeing are 50?
