As Abraham Lincoln so magnificently said , “ I ’ve seen every sunset , and with all that I ’ve learn , it ’s to you I will always , always regress . ” No … wait , sorry , that was really Bryan Adams . Anyway , watching a sunset is one of the real joyfulness of summertime , whether you ’re party on the beach , party at a rooftop bar , or just gaze out the window of a party , regretting buying a lexicon of citation .

For an fitly warm glow , hear the Red Rum Punch , a gloriously rosy mixture of BACARDÍ ® Raspberry with grenadine , cranberry succus , and lemon . And if you want to continue drinking these long after the sun sets , no one ’s get going to mind .

Brunch is always a right matter , but summer brunch?The best . To do it decently , you should be sure to baby-sit outdoors and consecrate a meal that will take at the very least three hours to waste . You should impart that table mirthfully stuffed and excitably buzzed at the same clock time , dead secure in the knowledge that you reveled more by noon than some people party all twenty-four hour period .

smack aside any brunch cocktail menu contain Mimosas or Bloody Marys , and instead ask for a Tango – a brunch - friendly blend of BACARDÍ ® Tangerine and Orange River juice . It ’s the breakfast drink of star .

If you do n’t spend at least one mean solar day on the beach , you did n’t really have a summertime . Everyone has their own druthers : Some enjoy the zip of a crowded party beach , swarming with college kids and their insanely overwhelm phone speakers , while others prefer something a more private gather of friends , where the waves lap at the sand while the sun mildly cook partiers well - done in peace .

Either direction , you ’re going to want a swallow in your hand , so go for a Bright & Sunny Punch . It ’s got the coconut and Ananas comosus base of a more traditional beach cocktail , but with a citrus tree and gingerroot twist that ’ll keep you from nod off while a tween writes bad-mannered words on your forehead in SPF 50 sun blocker .

The backyard barbecue is one of the season ’s highlights – an excuse to trash any diet because make out on , it would be rude not to corrode at least three of these double cheeseburger the host has fondly spend all twenty-four hours grilling . It ’s a long - burn mark company that ends with everyone felicitous , full of nutrient , and smell vaguely of charcoal .

Most barbecue do n’t stretch much beyond a cooler full of calorie-free beers , so to stand out , serve up something a little more impressive , like the Pomegranate Mojito . An exotically sourish plait on a classic cocktail , it ’ll cleanse the palate for that fifth blistering dog .

All of the above are terrific , fun activeness that we all expect forward to every summer . But we would gladly forgo every one of them for that ultimate summer experience : The summer offer . These sweaty whirlwind romances are some of the good times in a somebody ’s sprightliness , so if you meet the right candidate , you want to shanghai them betimes on , or waste half a summer that could have been spent wondering what parties ' ere may have been .

The Maestro Collins is a luxurious take on another classic , with just the right mix of simplicity and elegance in the preparedness to bet like a boss without it descending into a hipster barman snooze - fest . This is a cocktail that ’ll pink your potential buff ’s socks off . Or they could leave them on , it ’s really up to you .
