It's too damn hot outside drinks
Nothing fancy, just some american whiskey of choice and lime juice or lime-ade. Depending on how sweet the whiskey is a splash of simple syrup. Fill my metal cup up with ice, pour 3/4th's whiskey and add the rest of the ingredients to taste.
Other preferred drinks when it's too damn hot outside?

My go to is vodka and cranberry with a lime. Splash of pineapple really ads something too.
Also a fan of Absolut Citron and tonic when I'm thirsty. -

Nothing wrong with a classic Mojito. I have a mint plant growing on my patio just so I have some at the ready during the summer months.

This is one of the wife's go-to drinks for summer. She'll buy mint plants and then bug me to make them.Doog_de_Jour said:Nothing wrong with a classic Mojito. I have a mint plant growing on my patio just so I have some at the ready during the summer months.

I’m sure your lovely bride has already thought of this, but it’s sometimes fun to play with the type of mint or add other plants like lemongrass or Thai basil. Gives it a little kick.UW_Doog_Bot said:

Sangria is great too. Good for using up that bottle of red wine you’ve used for cooking.

That was my grandma's drink of choice. Not saying you're a grandma so don't twistDoog_de_Jour said:Sangria is great too. Good for using up that bottle of red wine you’ve used for cooking.
Her mouth would get "a little dry" was her explanation when my mom would ask her why there were a dozen empties -
for a hot day gulp a couple of these puppies down
then fall back on beer, with limes
-
For by the pool vodka with pink lemonade Crystal light in a big ass jug is the move

No worries Race. I like classic cocktails, I don’t care if it makes me look old fashioned*.RaceBannon said:

Another for mojitos. Sounds like @Doog_de_Jour and me were meant to be.Doog_de_Jour said:Nothing wrong with a classic Mojito. I have a mint plant growing on my patio just so I have some at the ready during the summer months.

Original Mai Tai. Anyone who puts juice besides lime in a Mai Tai needs to be shot.

The $4 million study says you need to evaluate the evaporation rate of the sweat that would be generated and a hot drink would cool you down faster in certain conditions. Dripping sweat and not evaporating the sweat stick with cold drinks.

Daiquiris are the best drink. Full stop. But, you know... on a hot day, amazeballs.
2oz Flor de Caña white (the rum is really important; should be FDC 4)
1oz lime juice (if it's older than 4 hours, you are a fucking idiot)
10mL superfine sugar
Shake, strain.
Bam. -

Bam.
And drink a ton at a time.
So vodka and Crystal light reigns supreme.
And it's just as good watered down so you can add a shitload of ice.

Those limey Pimm's Cups are the shit. Had my first one at the Steward's Enclosure at the Henley Royal Regatta. Paid for it with my UW meal per diem cash money. Thanks Baabs!!PurpleThrobber said:

My go to summer drink is as follows:
1/2 glass of Tito’s Vodka on the rocks
Simple Syrup to taste (about a 1-2 second pour)
Top w Sparkling Water
Squeeze in lemon to taste (I usually do about 1 lemon for every 12-16 ounces of the glass)
A couple of notes:
Although more expensive Meyers lemons are substantially better
I usually peel some of the lemon skin and place at the bottom of my glass per each glass I pour ... between the natural sugars from the lemon as well as the simple syrup the peels become candied during the day and the amount of actual sugar needed for each drink drops throughout the day
