These are our favorite summertime game day drinks – from a true Wisconsinite😉

Check them out👇

1. Moscow Mule

Of course it is.. vodka, ginger beer, lime, what more do you need?

To make it you need:

• a copper mug (duh)
• 1/2 oz of fresh lime juice
• A shot (or two) of vodka
• 6oz of ginger beer.

Mix them up and you’re ready to go! If you wanna add a bit more flavor try muddling some mint leaves in the bottom of the mug!

2. Fresh Squeezed Screwdriver

Yes, a timeless classic. Most people probably know it as the overly sweet and sugary vodka-OJ. And it is.. but have you ever tried it with fresh squeezed juice? You can use oranges, tangerines, clementines, blood oranges, or even grapefruit or lemons- if that’s your thing.

To make the juice:

• Blend about 2.5 pounds of your fruit of choice in the blender- yes, the whole thing- seeds, peel and all. (you might want to wash them first)
• Add 1-1.5 cups water if you don’t like it as sweet
• Strain the juice through a mesh strainer- and voila!

To make the drink:

• Simply add your vodka of choice
• If you want to get fancy- muddle some fresh mint or basil before you pour

3. Paloma

For all of my tequila drinkers out the, this ones for you.

• Tequila (obviously)
• 2oz grapefruit juice (fresh squeezed is best to avoid the hangover)
• 2oz sparkling water
• Fresh Lime
• Tbsp agave nectar, or honey, or simple syrup
• sea salt for the rim (optional)

Mix her up and you’re ready to party🎉

4. Classic Gin and Tonic

A staple. The recipe is mysteriously hidden in the name so I’ll lay it our for you:

• Gin
• Tonic

If you’re trying to curb the hangover try club soda or flavored sparkling water instead of the high-sugar tonic water we all love.

Mix in a glass with ice and you’re all set! Not a huge fan of gin? Try:

• Pink gin, usually a little sweeter
• Add a lime wedge
• Add fresh fruit or herbs
• Flavored seltzer

Happy Tailgating!🎉
