During the summer months, we love to entertain our family and friends with backyard barbecues and poolside parties. Coming up with the menu for our food ideas is usually the easy part...coming up with the beverages is a little more difficult. At our adult backyard parties, we like to serve slush drinks that contain alcohol, as they are perfect for those hot summer afternoons and evenings. All of these recipes will need to be prepared ahead of time so make them during the early morning hours. Tip: Remind your party guests to drink responsibly. Apricot Brandy Slush 2 cups water 4 tea bags 7 cups water 1 1/2 cups sugar 8 oz. frozen orange juice 8 oz. frozen lemonade 1 1/2 cups apricot brandy Sprite Soda In a large saucepan, boil 2 cups of water. Add tea bags and set aside to cool. Boil 7 cups of water; add sugar and stir until dissolved, set aside. When cooled, remove the tea bags and combine both of the water mixtures. Add frozen orange juice and lemonade, slowly pour in the apricot brandy. Freeze until almost firm. To serve: Fill a chilled glass 1/2 full and add Sprite soda to fill to the top of glass. Serve immediately. Peach Brandy Slush 3 tea bags 9 cups water 2 cups sugar 12 oz. frozen lemonade concentrate 6 oz. frozen orange juice concentrate 2 cups peach brandy 7-up soda Boil tea bags in 2 cups of water and set aside to cool. In a separate saucepan, boil 7 cups of water and sugar together until dissolved. Add tea water to this mixture. Stir in the lemonade and orange juice concentrates, add peach brandy. Freeze for 5 hours in the freezer. Fill chilled glass 1/2 way with brandy slush, then add the 7-up soda. Serve immediately. Pineapple Coconut Vodka Slush 6 oz. vodka 6 oz. pineapple juice 6 oz. cream of coconut 7 oz. crushed pineapple 5 cups of crushed ice Mix all ingredients together in a blender until the consistency of a slushy drink. Freeze for 2 hours in the freezer before serving in chilled glasses.
