Drinks for a bbq?
What are some good drinks to have at a bbq? we're not beer drinkers, and some people have weak stomachs, but we just wanna have fun. What would you suggest? maybe something that doesnt taste too strong, but will still get you messed up.
Answers:
Tequila Sunrise (--,)
recipe:
2 msr tequila
orange juice
2 dashes grenadine syrup
Pour tequila in a highball glass with ice, and top with orange juice. Stir. Add grenadine by tilting glass and pouring grenadine down side by flipping the bottle vertically very quickly. The grenadine should go straight to the bottom and then rise up slowly through the drink. Garnish stirrer, straw and cherry-orange.
Enjoy (--,)

vodka added to Ice cold lemonade or iced tea is great at any bbq!! plus it won't dehydrate you in the heat like beer does..
You could try some Lemonade very cold with lots of ice. Or just try some diet soda...also cold....cold drinks are good...very good i hope i really help.
If you make a nice pitcher or two of sangria, that would be nice. Try to make one with a white wine and one with a red. Mix and match up the summer fruits. There are many many many simple sangria recipes to follow. YUM!!!
