How does sipping on a chilled Watermelon Margarita while chilling on the boat sound? It’s easy and I’ll post a blog on how it’s made.
What’s in a typical cooler: Drinks of aluminum cans? Maybe some pouch drinks and a few other specialty drinks brought from home? Let’s face it, there isn’t a bartender on your boat nor is there one floating around with a neon sign, either.
Electricity and space are both luxuries on a boat.
We will be exploring methods and tricks on how to make the best drinks on the lake on your boat. Submit suggestions and we”ll try to make it on my boat.
All mixed drinks can be made before stepping foot on the boat. Complicated drinks and those drinks that call for a laundry list of ingredients would be best to make before venturing out on the lake. I will be exploring a list of drinks that are easy to make and doesn’t require many ingredients. There are hundreds of drinks you can make with just two simple ingredients. Many more can be made with just 3 ingredients.
Your imagination is the only limit when it comes to making drinks.
AND as always drink responsibly on the lake. Know you limits and drink plenty of water. We are on the lake to have fun, not to have medical emergencies. Always keep an eye on your buddies. Dehydration is a very serious condition on the lake.
The following are real simple to make while on the water.
- Bay Breeze
- Sea Breeze
- Hairy Navel
- Aperol Spritz
- Whiskey Sour
- Hawaiian Sea Breeze
- Paloma
- and…Mimosa’s
Hopefully, this summer I’ll be able to show how we make drinks on the boat without the mess. I’ll make a few drinks the night before, keep them fridge, and show how to enjoy them on the boat. The key point in all of this is to make a day out on the boat enjoyable, relaxing, and stress-free. Drink Responsible.
