northerntantra 4671 Report post Posted July 13, 2012 My summer drinks would be water, iced tea and beer. I like using brewed tea and real lemon for my ice tea rather than the powder. that way I can keep the sugar content low -- I find sweet drinks just make me more thirsty. (Not to mention packing on the pounds!) While I gravitate towards Irish cream ales (e.g. Kilkenny) and Guiness throughout most of the year, they are too heavy for a hot summer's day by the pool. Corona, preferably with lime, is much more satisfying. Another beer I like is Bierra Moretti, the Italian beer. It has lots of carbonation which provides a refreshing taste in the heat, yet gives minimal head (yuk yuk) when poured into a frosted mug. Leaves the mouth crisp and wet.

Traditional French style, grassy and crisp) Beer: Hoegarrden (The absolute perfect sunshine beer) Spirits: Gin and tonic, twist of lime Oh look. It's Friday afternoon. Why am I still at work?????
