Cool down with a summer beverage that's light & tasty
I'm always looking for ways to feel like I'm eating and drinking well, without spending a fortune. While 'Whole Paycheck' offer convenience and 'whole foods,' it's easy to walk out spending $100+. Yikes! If you have a family, you're looking at spending way more so what's an idea for a cool beverage that won't cost $$$?
Buy fruit juice at Traders Joes and also juice lemons, limes, oranges and grapefruit and use your ice cube trays. Once frozen, toss in a plastic bag or glass jar in the freezer. I use these fresh juice ice cubes in bubbly water like Pellegrino, but they're also delicious in plain and simple tap water. This is also a lot less expensive than purchasing flavored waters.
For an adult cocktail on a hot summer eve, in addition to the juice cubes and Pellegrino, add Tequila or Vodka. Yum!

ginger ale and strawberries might be a good addition, too! :)
Love this idea with the ginger ale!
i'll try it today!
Another idea is to cut watermelon into cubes and freeze them as replacements for ice cubes. Delicious and beautiful in the glass!
