Thirsty Thursday Revived

I am hereby reviving Thirsty Thursdays!

Last week I must have been on an apple kick, because I picked up two different apple ales on impulse. And they are GOOD. I seriously have Spring Fever and these are perfect!

Redd's Apple Ale

Ale with natural apple flavor & caramel color

Shock Top Honeycrisp Apple

Shock Top Honeycrisp Apple Wheat is a unique, hand crafted brewed hybrid of Belgian wheat beer and sweet cider, with natural Honeycrisp flavor added to produce an innovative new brew that is crisp, refreshing and flavorful.  This unfiltered brew is the perfect beer to welcome the warming Spring days.

Have you tried these? What sounds good to you on this Thirsty Thursday?

Raspberry Lemonade Sangria

Doesn't that look amazing? I was searching for a sangria recipe I had seen in a magazine that was made with white wine rather than red, and I ran across this and my mouth started watering! I definitely plan on making this- maybe Fourth of July weekend, and I can add some blueberries!

Thirsty Thursday/Friday: Sweet Tea Vodka

Have you gotten into the Sweet Tea Vodka craze? It's all I'm hearing about so I had to join in. Last weekend we went to a pool party, so I took a gallon of Red Diamond Sugar Free Sweet Tea and a bottle of Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka. It was a hit! So refreshing on a hot day by the pool.

Tip: Keep your vodka in the freezer.

What are your go-to summer drinks for days by the pool?

On Monday, Hungry Girl told me about Sinless Margarita Mix, and I am intrigued! I think I may place an order but wondered if anyone has tried it?
Here's what Hungry Girl said:

Sinless Margarita Mix - We tend to be a tad skeptical of stevia-sweetened products until we taste them. Well, this all-natural, non-alcoholic mix is REALLY GOOD. No bitter aftertaste. Really. A 3-oz. serving has only 5 calories, 2g carbs, and nothing else (POINTS® value 0*). Just combine 2 - 3 parts mix with 1 part tequila, and you're good to go! Click to find (if you live in Georgia) or buy online.

A shot of tequila has about 100 calories in it, so it looks like you could have a very-low calorie margarita using this mix. The Sashas are getting a new back patio poured and will hopefully get to spend many an evening outside enjoying the summer while the kids play. In my vision, I am drinking a margarita... should it be a Sinless one?

If any of you locals happen to be traveling to neighboring states anytime soon, will you pick up some Wild Blue for me? It's not sold in lovely state with crazy beer laws, and I've got a hankering for it..... I think I have one lonely bottle left that some good friends brought me recently and then I'll be fresh out.

It's just about time for the Summer of Beer of you know.

The Sasha family has found a new Crystal Light flavor that we absolutely love- Natural Cranberry Apple. It's so tasty and refreshing and at only 5 calories a glass, I can drink all I want guilt-free.

Disclosure: I purchased this product with my own hard-earned cash. No freebies here.

A few weeks ago we were over at our neighbor's house and the Mr. made me a drink using 1 part Kahlua and and 2 parts sparking water. On the Kahlua website, it's named Sparkling Water, which strikes me as very funny. Get creative Kahlua marketing people!

It was very good- quite refreshing!

Thirsty Thursday: 3-18-10

Hair Bows & Guitar Picks is hosting Thirsty Thursday today, and how perfect, seeing as how I enjoyed a few beers last night in celebration of St. Patrick's Day.

Yesterday afternoon, we met some friends at a local Irish pub for a few drinks and I enjoyed one of my new finds, Harp Lager.


Do you have any new beer finds to share with me?

Hair Bows & Guitar Picks is hosting Thirsty Thursday today, and of course I'm joining in. Today she posted something absolutely fabulous that you must check out- it's so fabulous I think I'll be making it for our neighborhood poker tourney coming up on the 27th.

One of our fabulous neighbors, in fact, introduced me to one of my favorite new drinks- a Chocolate Covered Cherry. For our neighborhood Chili Cookoff a few months ago (we have fun neighbors, huh?), I carried over a bottle of Lindemans Framboise.

It looks like wine, pours like a beer with a little foam, and goes down so easy with no bitter aftertaste. Oh how I love thee. It's a raspberry lambic and I guarantee you'll love it.

But I digress.... when I walked in with my bottle, my neighbor said, "We love that too! Have you ever mixed it half and half with chocolate stout?" Of course I had not, but I indulged and it was so so good. You totally need to give it a try.

Last night the hubs stopped off at a random convenience store on his way home and found 18 packs of MGD 64 for $9! So of course he picked up two for me.....

That's my man.
