They say Sundays are best spent in your bikini sippin’ on a glass of champagne! While I couldn’t agree more, I like to mix it up every once in a while. Don’t you? From scrumptious bloody mary’s, that are an entire meal alone, to savory limoncello spritzers, I’ve rounded up five of my favorite cocktails that are sizzlin’ for poolside this summer!
Skipped breakfast? No problem. This Bloody Mary is loaded!
1 Lemon wedge
1 Lime wedge
2 oz Premium Vodka
4 oz Tomato juice
2 dashes Tabasco Sauce
2 tsp Prepared horseradish
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
1 pinch Celery salt
1 pinch Ground black pepper
1 pinch Smoked paprika

In the mood for a refreshing beverage? Try this Limoncello Spritzer!
1 lemon wedge
1/2 cup club soda, chilled
1 ounce limoncello
Last but not least, my famous Sangria recipe!
Start with two bottles of a merlot or a nice spanish wine
Add 2 cups of Stillhouse Moonshine or brandy if you don’t have moonshine
Add 1 8oz can of dole sliced pineapples with the juice
Cut up 3 oranges and 3 limes in wedges
1 small bag of frozen peaches
1 cup of pineapple juice, this should take the place of adding sugar
But it’s a taste and see type of drink, so if you need it sweeter add 1 cup of sugar
Best if made the night before!
