-an easy weeknight drink-
Smirnoff or Malibu-
Which one is your favorite?
Which one is your favorite?
I know its only Tuesday but there's never a better time for a fun, easy and quick adult beverage than on the second day of the work week, amiright? Not in the mood tonight? Grab everything you need next time you're in Target, if you are anything like me you'll be there within a week.
I saw these sparkling sodas on my most recent trip to Target and knew that they would make a perfect fruity drink base. They're pretty sweet on their own so they make great mixers and they have 1/2 cup of fruit per serving as little added bonus. I'm not a fan of super fizzy soda and these have a champagne-like carbonation to them, which is delightful.
Okay so here is what you will need:
- Target brand Simply Balanced Sparkling Peach Mango
- Nips- I chose Malibu and Pineapple Smirnoff
- Frozen peaches
- A splash of Strawberry Lemonade (optional in the Smirnoff drink)
Find some cute glasses, a wine glass worked really well for me. This is a great drink to make for yourself because all of the ingredients are either single serving or something you can use for another recipe. Mix one can of soda and one nip then add peaches, easy-peasy! Give them a little stir and enjoy. If you have some other frozen fruit in your freezer I think strawberries or raspberries would make a great addition.
I was really hoping for some fresh peaches but didn't find any so frozen was the next best thing. I used them as ice cubes and as they melt the drink gets even tastier. AND when you are done with the drink you have a little dessert- best drink ever? Yeah, probably.
The verdict?
The taste test included myself, Brendan, my brother, Carlos and his roommate. A 3-to-1 vote determined the drink with Malibu as the clear favorite. I'm not normally a Malibu fan and neither are the boys but this drink is so delicious that it has won me over. I see myself enjoying one of these at the beach this summer, if only the weather would cooperate.Which one will you be making this weekend? Let us know if you try it!
Cheers,
❤ Demi
