Hey guys,
With summer coming and my tendency to mix my drinks on the heavy side, I thought I would try and get a recipe for some kind of alcopop (smirnoff ice, hard limonade, bacardi breezer, whatever) and if I have a good recipe, I will pre-bottled 100 beer bottles and distribute freely around the pool this summer, what do you think?
Do any of you have any recipes for that, I will start to experiment but I'd like to start somewhere so I'm just asking if you guys have any idea.
Thanks a lot and enjoy summer! (up in Canada here, was snowing just yesterday...)
take it easy

Re: alcopop
I could probably come up with 100 reasons why this isn't a good idea, but...
Why not simply supply various chasers and let people mix their own...??? Granted, pre-mixed drinks allow you to regulate the booze to mixer ratio... But, aside from that, most parties I've been to don't allow glass anywhere near the pool area... It's either a plastic cup or an aluminum can... No glass... Barefoot drunks and glass just don't mix... Trust me, I've dug deeper into someones heel with a pair of forceps after a piece of broken beer bottle than you could even imagine they should be able to go, and then pulled out a bigger shard of glass than you could imagine being in there... My toes were curling the entire time, but you should have seen the look on the guys face I was working on... Ah, the memories...
Food for thought...

Re: alcopop
ouch!
ok, I'll take good note of your comment.. let's say I use only PET bottles (oh dear! here comes the PET debate!).
Seriously, I understand your point about the glass and I cringe, but like I said, the goal is to regulate, try to emulate beer drinking if you will...
I'll probably end up pre-mixing ethanol with a good low-card drink that I'll like..
thanks anyway, and ENJOY SUMMER!

Re: alcopop
You got the alc. Just add pop as needed. Alcopop is overtaxed, overrated, and pissweak.
