Frozen Alcohol Drinks

Frozen alcohol drinks served with a fresh slice of fruit add to the festive atmosphere of an adult pool party.  Strawberry Surprise Champagne or Watermelon Delight are just two of my refreshing favorites.

Be sure to use only high quality acrylic or stainless steel wine glasses. There should be no glass to shatter out by the pool.

Frozen Tropical Alcoholic Drinks

Here is a recipe from Paula Deen:

pina colada drink

Ingredients are:

* Ice cubes

* 1/2 cup rum

* 1/2 cup coconut cream

* 1/4 cup coconut milk

* 1/4 cup pineapple chunks

Fill blender halfway with ice cubes. Add rum, coconut cream, coconut milk and pineapple chunks. Puree.

Garnish with a slice of pineapple and maraschino cherry.

Strawberry Champagne

My husband loves strawberries and I knew he would love this strawberry champagne. We served it at his birthday party along with a toast using the words from Michael Buble's song Everything,

"And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times

It's you, it's you, You make me sing.

You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.

You're every song, and I sing along.

'Cause you're my everything."

OK, now for the recipe. It is so simple but refreshing. It is adapted from Eat Yourself Skinny blogspot.

One 16 oz package of fresh strawberries sliced

1/4 Cup of Water

1/4 Cup of Agave Nectar

Juice of One Lime

One Bottle of Chilled Champagne (substitute sparkling apple juice for a non-alcoholic drink)

(optional to add some fresh mint leaves) My husband doesn't like mint so we left it out.

Mix in a blender. Fill each champagne glass about 1/3 - 1/2 with strawberry puree and the rest with champagne. Tilt the glass to help reduce the foaming. Or let it rest for a minute and add more champagne.

Refreshing Watermelon Drink

My sister served this great watermelon drink and we loved the refreshing taste.  It's now become one of our favorite poolside drinks.

Ingredients:

2 Cups of Cut up Watermelon

1 Pint of Cut up Strawberries

1/3 Cup of Sugar

1/3 Cup of Lemon Juice (for a frozen alcoholic drink use 1/3 Cup of Lime Vodka)

2 Cups of Ice Cubes

In a container mix the watermelon, strawberries, sugar and lemon juice. You can do this ahead of time. When it's time to serve just put the mix in the blender and add 2 Cups of ice cubes. It is really good!

Easy From The Freezer Section

pina colada drink

You can make your own drink or we have found these easy to serve drinks in a bag at our local grocery store. They come in several flavors like Pina Colada and Strawberry Daiquiri.

You can serve them as is with a straw - but it is much more party like to put them in nice polycarbonate wine glasses with a festive straw.

Keep a bunch of them in your freezer so you are ready for any last minute entertaining.

Frozen mixed drinks make it even easier to be ready any time for a party. For example pina colada, strawberry daiquri or a refreshing margarita can all be bought in these neat single servings.

Freeze them and serve as is with a straw or thaw them just a little and pour into acrylic wine glasses.

I like to add a little ginger ale or Sprite to mine and serve it with a fun straw.

Beverage Bucket On a Stand

When there isn't enough table room for your drinks, a great way to make them easily accessible to your guests is by serving them in a container on a stand rather than in a closed cooler where guests are required to bend down to open a cooler or dig through a tub of ice.

This stainless steel oval shaped party tub measures 28.5"L x 14.6"W x 31.8"H.

Use it with or without the included black stand.  A great addition for your outdoor entertaining.

Wine Glass Stem Tags

Don't you just love the bright colors of these wine glass stem tags? Found the tags at Target and then used beach themed foam stickers rather than names.

People often don't take the time to write their name on the tag, so by having a unique sticker they can remember which glass is theirs.

Even though I have many wine charms, I find that that the tags that can be written on with names work the best.
