Summer Cocktails – What To Drink And What To Avoid
We LOVES us some bloody marys on a nice weekend morning. Especially with friends, at summer barbecues, well….anytime really! It’s a good thing that bloody marys fall into the “Drink It” category in Prevention magazine’s list of “Best and Worst Summer Cocktails.”
On the list of summer cocktails to avoid? Mudslides, Strawberry Daiquiris (darn!) and Long Island Iced Teas. Here is a picture of our shock and embarrassment after realizing that we should be avoiding Long Islands – as opposed to drinking them by the bucketful at Howl at the Moon.

LOVE the picture…hilarious! Most people can’t drink enough Long Island’s to be bad for their caloric intake because they are passed out on the floor before that happens.
