Classic Beach Drinks that you need to know how to make... and here's why. Walk with me - You're heading to the beach with a group of friends and you want to be able to do something besides pop open a beer or buy expensive watered down drinks from the bar for somebody you meet. Your buddy grabs a cold beer from the community cooler - the one with the dirty ice and floating debris. Yep, it's time to impress your beach date with your behind the wet-bar skills. Here are 3 Beach Themed Recipes for you so that you can get your inner mixologist vibe going. Oh, before we go any further... popping open a beer... is fine...but do it with some style.
Cindy has been hanging out at Tiki Beach Shop for years! She's a friend of from high school, college and surf camp. She's always made us smile... and now I know why! She makes one heck of an Old Fashioned and takes a great picture! I see mixed drink photography as the next big growth industry. Or, we can just enjoy Cindy's recipe for an Old Fashioned. Thanks for the recipe and picture Cindy!
Enjoy your beverage!
