Cocktail Pouches

Check out my YouTube Channel!

My parents threw a big party at their house, and I got sucked into the vortex of food and beverage production, along with inviting people and creating a playlist. Thankfully, the thought of a party excites me, so it wasn’t like pulling teeth. In fact, I tend to go a little overboard and get carried away, adding more items to the list. Imagine that.

After making Alcoholic Freeze Pops, my neighbor suggested that I make alcoholic drinks in the form of adult Capri Suns. “Don’t give me any ideas!” I fussed at her. Two minutes later, I was on Amazon searching for beverage pouches…and whaddya know, they had MANY options to choose from. Shocker. Next thing I know, the order button has been hit and they’re on the way to my house. My parents’ party was the perfect opportunity to try these out, so a cooler was loaded when I left the house, and the party-goers were loaded when I left the party.

Many of these recipes are made as a punch with a 2 liter bottle of soda, but you can very easily exclude the soda for a bigger kick with each sip. Personally I’m not a huge fan of added soda in cocktails, but it’s a great way to cut the drink so that it’s not overpowering (and gives you more to sip on if you’re a lightweight like me!).

These are fantastic for lake days or beach days, just load up your cooler and off you go with a pre-made cocktail and ready for a good time!
