Triple “F” Friday – Summer Fun, Swimsuits for All, and Cool Adult Beverages

It’s Official…Summer Time Is HERE!!!

FASHION:

It’s officially summer and I am not only sharing this list for my readers, but for myself.  Because I’m not swimsuit ready, I am on the hunt for something that I will feel comfortable in…no matter my size.  So here are some very cute suits for every size, enjoy this list with me :-)

                                                                             

FOOD(ISH):

What’s a sexy swimsuit without a nice cold adult “beverage” ;-)

Ingredients

  • 10 ounce (1 1/4 cups) citrus-flavored vodka
  • 1/2 cup Rose’s lime juice
  • 2 cups cranberry juice
  • 4 ice cube trays

Preparation

Combine vodka, lime juice, and cranberry juice in a pitcher with 2 cups water and stir to blend. Divide between ice cube trays and freeze at least 4 hours or overnight (the drink cubes will freeze only partially). Just before serving, empty trays into a large bowl and using a fork, break up cubes to loosen ice crystals (the ice will be slushlike). Spoon slush into tall stemmed glasses and serve immediately.

Ingredients

  • 5 peeled kiwifruit, divided
  • 3 cups ice
  • 1/4 cup light rum
  • 1/4 cup Midori (melon-flavored liqueur)
  • 3 tablespoons Cream of Coconut (such as Coco Lopez)
  • 1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice, undrained

Preparation

Cut 4 kiwifruit into quarters, and place in a blender. Set remaining kiwifruit aside. Add ice and remaining ingredients to blender; process until smooth. Strain mixture through a sieve into a pitcher; discard seeds. Divide evenly among 6 glasses. Cut remaining kiwifruit into 6 slices; garnish each glass with 1 kiwifruit slice.

Ingredients

  • premium vanilla ice cream
  • few tablespoonfuls of creamy porter or stout
  • fresh raspberries
  • fresh mint sprigs

Preparation

Top premium vanilla ice cream with a few tablespoonfuls of a creamy porter or stout (such as Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout). Add a sprinkle of fresh raspberries and a fresh mint sprig for a quick and creative dessert.
