Fun Time Lime

It’s no secret that my family enjoys a good fun drink for special occasions. Some favorites include Cranberry Margaritas on Christmas day, Bloody Mary Bars on Thanksgiving, and Mimosas any of the other mornings… So here goes a string of ridiculously easy party drinks!

Fun Time Lime

6 Cans of Bud Light Lime
1 Can of Frozen Pink Lemonade Concentrate (Minute Maid)
1 Cup Vodka*
1 Lime
1 Package Fresh Raspberries

MIX lemonade and vodka in a festive pitcher. Stir well until concentrate is dissolved.

POUR in the beer slowly and at an angle to prevent excessive foaming.

GARNISH with lime slices and fresh raspberries. These can remain whole, or be muddled prior if you prefer a stronger flavor.

NOTE: I usually just use the empty lemonade carton to measure the vodka, that way I get any remaining lemonade concentrate.

What sort of diary should I like mine to be? Something loose-knit and yet not slovenly, so elastic that it will embrace anything, solemn, slight or beautiful, that comes into my mind. I should like it to resemble some deep old desk or capacious hold-all, in which one flings a mass of odds and ends without looking them through. I should like to come back after a year or two, and find that the collection had sorted itself and refined itself and coalesced, as such deposits so mysteriously do, into a mould, transparent enough to reflect the light of our life, and yet steady, tranquil compounds with the aloofness of a work of art. The main requisite, I think, on reading my old volumes, is not to play the part of a censor, but to write as the mood comes or of anything whatever; since I was curious to find how I went for things put in haphazard, and found the significance to lie where I never saw it at the time.

I grew up watching cooking shows instead of cartoons. I get whisks and pastry brushes in my Christmas stocking instead of traditional trinkets. My favorite thing to do is frost a cupcake. My undergraduate degree was in Theatrical Costume Design, which means I take pride in how I am presented. I own monogrammed wine glasses, and my own set of Italian Vietri China. I collect English tea cups, and love a good cucumber sandwhich. I shop at J.Crew and Banana Republic and I have traveled to over %9 of the world. This blog began as a travel log while I was abroad, however like most things in life-- plans are subject to change, so here's to good food and good fashion!
