do we have any vodka drinkers out there? my favs are Vox, Grey Goose, and absolut -if it's flavored-and my hubby likes stoli too-i am buying the the blueberry stoli tomorrow it's finally in the albertson's-cheapest place to buy hard liquor.

Nope, haven't tried that. If I do, I'll definitely give you a report and if you try it, let me know. On the triple-sec, if I have it, I use it but if I don't, I really don't miss it. I use the sugar to "cut" some of the tartness of the drink. I prefer mine over ice when I'm at a restaurant but if I make them at home, I always make frozen - hmm - wonder why??? No rhyme or reason, just do. I'll have to try mine on the rocks next time I make some. Oh, and one of my all time fav songs - "Jose Cuervo, You Are A Friend of Mind" by, I think, Shelly West. Now I'm gonna be singing that tune in my head all day :p

Ooooooooooooo...I have THE BEST Margarita recipe EVER! It sounds strange, but it is seriously THE BEST!

2 cans of Minute Maid frozen limeade mix (I attached a pic bc I really didn't know how to explain this)

1 Corona beer

Sprite

Tequila

Mix together the minute maid, beer, and sprite and tequila to taste. Put in the freezer until frozen. It doesn't freeze all the way because of the alcohol, but it makes it all slushy and yummy! This is seriously THE BEST Margarita Recipe! YUMMY!

HMMMMMMM.. sounds yummy... gotta try that one....good one BECCA!:p

I've decided that I'm having a Mexican FEAST 2nite, thanks to Cindy's yummy recipes! I'm going to have those, gracamole, and homemade margaritas! YUMMY! :p :p :p

aww. thanks... see.. I tell you you need to visit me... lol../..:D we will be drinking at eating all the time... lol

I'll try anything once!!it's sounding pretty good to me but the beer part is throwing me off but i love corona so can't complain!!!gosh i'm glad my mil is watching the kids cuz i think we are going to be DRUNK!!!

My MIL gave me this recipe and it threw me off a little too at first, but after I tried it, I didn't give it a second thought. You can't even taste the beer. I think it balances the margs out and makes them not so sweet. I don't like margs that are super sweet and I think that is what the beer does.

I KNOW! That would be SOOO much fun! Hubby and I LOVE Texas. Are you anywhere near Austin? We have family there. We really should come visit.

Been on a big vodka kick lately. Try Raspberry stoli & lemonade, make the lemonade strong & add a bit of suger. Chill overnight

To improve strawberry magaritas use Jose, regular strawberry margarita mix, then add a tablespoon or two of strawberry jam blend well.

Wine: I'm a cheap wine girl, I love turning leaf chardonnay or pinot gricio (sp), the ecco domani pinot gricio is also nice. Not a red wine drinker.

nope.. im farther south.... past San Antonio.... about 30 minutes from South Padre Island...

we went there on vacation two years ago...very beautiful...went on a dolphin cruise and went to the water park-something with an S and ate lots of shrimps!!!

i'm getting my hubby the bluelberry stoli tomorrow...got any drink ideas for that?

oh and i got the absolut ruby red grapefruit flavored vodka the other day...i keep it in my freezer and make salty dogs with it.....yummmmy!!!

Blueberry is a little tougher. I'd try it with sprite.

I also think it might be good if you mixed it with a mixed berry punch or raspberry koolaid.

Something that might be good is Blueberry stoli, raspberry stoli, strawberry stoli, mix together add splash of cranberry & sprite & then you have a berry drink that with mess you up.

Blueberry with ice cream & milk, topped with whipped cream

Disclaimer: I've never tried any of these things I'm just trying to think of what might be good. Make in small doses then try.

What's a salty dogs?

I am not big on mixed drinks. I do love Red and White wines and I am a sucker for Michelob Light!

Michelle

OMG! These are soooo good. I have made them for years! My family calls them "Skip And Go Nakeds". :D

oh it's so good...you put one or two shots of vodky-i use the ruby red flavored kind in a glass on top of ice then fill it when ruby red grapefruit juice-you can use reg. grapefruit juice too and shake it up to get it really cold and pour it into a salt-rimmed glass-my new salt of the month(i love salty) is kosher salt-it tastes delicious and you don't have to use nearly as much as you do table salt. they might be called something else but we have always called them salty dogs around here.:D :D :D

oooh what about a double shot of blueberry stoli with a tablespoon of blueberry jam and cream-blueberries and cream...might be good i'll have to try it and see....i didn't see strawberry stoli just orange, lemon, rasberry and blueberry i guess i could mix it all up with sprite like you said-a drunk fruit cobbler!!!!:D :D :D

They have strawberry in the smirnoff kind. Blueberries & cream would be good.

To top off the drunk fruit coppler add a little vanilla stoli too.

oooh girl that would be yummy!!! i bought him vanilla stoli for thi past christmas..it was good in coke, hot coffee, orange juice...that bottle didn't last too long everybody liked it..we would put it in our homemade hot chocolate and i would make homemade whipped cream with some of it too...it's really a good mixer for holiday drinks.my mil would make banana pudding & pecan pies with it and i made bread pudding and used it to make the sauce . we need to get together and drink one night!!!:p :p :D :D

I love different drinks, i enjoy khalua with coffee, frangelico in coffee, wines, beers, sangria, gluëwine at Xmas time, gotta drink it warmed up, that warms you up and wow does it kick in hehehe :D

i like frangelico poured on vanilla ice cream and on cheesecake-yummy!!!what is gluewine (couldn't find the .. thing on the keyboard)

You got it I am the mixed drink queen. I just have never gotten a taste for beer & I found out in college I had a talent for making excellent tasting drinks that would mess you up in a hurry.

WOWSERS! From Alcohol to food recipes. ANYWHO, I'm a beer drinker (bud lite)...don't drink very often...who has the time anymore...

I"m a LUSH!!!:p And I've worked bartending and catering so I can give you all kinds of ideas...

Stoli is my favorite, and the blueberry is awsome. Some fresh blueberries, Stoli and ice is very efficient! You can also make a Blueberry Mojito (I think someone posted a recipe above) just use blueberries instead of limes.

Something else that is romantic and delicious is a Chocolate Martini. You can Google it and get tons or ideas, but my favorite is...
Equal parts Godiva Chocolate Liquour and Vanilla Stoli and a generous splash of Kahlua. Shake over ice until well chilled, pour into a martini glass, and BAM!!!!! Swirling some Hershey's syrup in the glass before you pour makes for a nice presentation as well as some chocolate shavings sprinkled on top...

Champagne and strawberries is also a good romantic libation. If you want French Champagne Moet Chandon White Star is one of my favorites and it isn't that expensive. (Around $40 a bottle here in Jersey.) But something that is just as good and about half the price is Chandon Sparkling Wine (the Reserve with the black lable is my favorite). It is made by the same people using the same method, but can't be labled as Champagne because it doesn't come from the Champagne region of France. Since there is no import tax, it's a lot cheaper, too!

Have fun!!!:heart:

I love frangelico in my coffee, everyone thinks it's just a coffee like they are having, but i get happy on a cup LOL :yelrotflmao:

i love watermelon pucker!!

If you mix pucker with zyma you get a very tasty very alcholic drink. It makes the pucker not quite as sweet & makes zyma taste like something.

I actually make a drink out of it with pucker and a watermelon bacatri i call it the Amber pucker fu**er

LOL!!:D

I was just making them on Sat lol
