As most of us know staying hydrated is very important and not just is the summer months. Summer however does provide us with a whole new menu of enjoyable, ice cold beverages to consume. I love drinks! I am a pretty slow eater - when I go out to eat with friends I have food on my plate for at least ten minutes longer than everyone else, servers come by trying to take my plate or give me a to go box and I have to shoo them away explaining, "I'm still working on it, I'm just a slow eater." But with drinks, why, I can chug those down in seconds, SECONDS! There was one summer that I lived in Madison and my friend Alissa and I would frequent the Espresso Royale (mostly upper State Street location, although lower has great outdoor seating for people watching -er checking out the hotties ;) I would always order a cherry lime flavored italian soda and an iced coffee, I would manage to drink both before Alissa could get through her one iced coffee. Anytime I didn't order two drinks she would comment. Those might have been the days I was trying to be a bit more frugal.
Nowadays, the beverage choices are getting almost overwhelming! How does a girl choose between five different flavors of Kombucha? Even here, at the "End of the Road" Ely Minnesota I can choose from the entire line of Synergy drinks! So yesterday as I was consuming a spritzer which I had concocted on my own lamenting on how delicious it was I decided I would compile a list of some of my favorite summer time drinks and share them with you.
Just remember that nothing beats WATER and you want to be sure to get enough of that each day!
Happy middle of summer!
cheers,
nyks
