Cocktail Corner: Sounds awful, but it isn’t!

A friend recently told me about this drink:

—Tequila
—Ice
—Lime wedge
—Squirt citrus soda

I wasn’t too keen to try it, but it’s actually pretty refreshing!

That doesn’t sound so bad. I don’t think we have squirt around this way - is it like Sprite or 7-Up?

Last year some one had given us a bottle of Norwegian raspberry vodka. We tossed some of that over ice with pomegranate-raspberry juice and that was yummy.

Squirt is grapefruit flavored. It’s actually one of the few soft drinks I like and that drink sounds pretty good to me! Kind of like a tequila salty dog.

I didn’t even think they made Squirt anymore. I would definitely try that drink.

In Mexico, Fresca has sugar in it—it’s not a diet drink. Squirt is basically Mexican Fresca.

I have that same glass, btw.

Kevin, is there a drink you wouldn’t try? ;-)

@ Cleter—you can’t go wrong with Tervis Tumblers. Particularly with a Gator logo.

Well, I guess we know what we’ll be putting away at Roastacon!

I had gin and some budget Canadian version of Squirt at a house party a few months ago, which we called a White Trash Tom Collins. It was really quite good.
