Hump Day Happy Hour: Cranberry Mimosa

It’s just about Turkey time, so I am sure that most of you could use a happy hour break from all that Thanksgiving dinner prep. I’ve got just what the doctor ordered… a Cranberry Mimosa! I make these for my family gathering every Thanksgiving and let me tell you… there sure are not any leftovers to take home!

In a large punch bowl, pour equal parts cranberry juice cocktail and orange juice, I use about 4 cups of each. Next, dump in 2 bottles of your favorite bubbly(I use $5 Andres and it tastes amazing) and stir. Garnish with orange slices if you’re feeling fancy!

Hump Day Happy Hour: Beeritas!

Happy Hour can’t get any better than an ice cold beer or a nice margarita… oh wait, it can! Put ’em together and BAM! Beeritas!! The best of both worlds.

All in one pitcher, pour 2 Coronas and add one can of frozen limeade concentrate, refill your limeade can with tequila and add that in too. Fill the remainder of your pitcher up with Sprite and mix it up. Mmm..mmm.. good.

Hump Day Happy Hour: 3 Steps to Cocktail Heaven

I’m usually a beer girl, but every now and then I like to dive into a fruity and delicious cocktail. One problemo folks… fruity cocktails have about, and I’m roughly estimating here, a zillion calories. I’ve come up with a solution… and get ready because this is going to blow you away the first time you try it.

Step one: Order yourself a vodka and one of the following: soda, tonic, or water. ( I prefer soda because I’m a fizzy drink type of gal)

Step two: Have already smuggled in a Crystal Light  sugar free single serving drink mix packet in your purse. (Here at Tipsy Society these are called crack water packets.. well, because they are addictive, highly addictive)

Step three: Mix ordered drink with crack water packet and consume with complete and utter glee.
