A few weekends ago, spring was temporarily shoved aside by summer who decided he'd had enough of waiting his turn. It was warm - no, hot - and I opened up all the windows on the off chance a cool breeze might find its way inside.
In a sea of beverages awash with garish, sugary cocktails like Chi-Chi's, Buttery Nipples, and Blow Jobs, this refreshing libation can be a port in a storm. Traditionally a mixture of dark rum, ginger beer, and an optional squeeze of lime, the Dark and Stormy gets its name from its dusky appearance (when compared to most tropical drinks).
These Skinny Watermelon Lemon Slushies are the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer's day. Thanks to no sugar added, you will be sipping these 3 ingredient treats guilt free! July is birthday month in our family. It is my mom's birthday, Nick's dad, Stella's great grandma, and of course Baby Stella...which happens to be today!
I was part of a whole generation of San Franciscans that were terrorized by Bruno, a cantankerous, older Persian man who had a bar in the Haight called Persian Aub Zam Zam. I've probably mentioned him before, but I recently went down that rabbit hole of the Internet where I found a few stories about him via a search for something else.
Canned frozen limeade intensifies the citrus flavor of this slushy Mexican-inspired libation, an easy drink for summer cocktail parties and cookouts.
