The drinks of summer

I don't know about you but there are certain icy drinks that I love to sip on in the hot summer sun.

Number 1 this year is Iced Tea

Number 2 Iced coffee

Number 3 Sangria

Iced Tea

Last summer my Mom pretty much always had sun tea in her fridge and I always loved it when I went home! This year I finally got my own stock of tea's from Teavana. They have some of the best teas for making iced tea! My favorites are Seven berry sangria (being discontinued), Sangria punch and pineapple kona pop. They have so many flavors of loose leaf tea's to choose from and it is so fun to mix them! I fill up their awesome tea tumbler with the iced tea put in some ice cubes and bring it to work with me, it is ice cold and the ice cubes are hardly melted by the afternoon.

Iced Coffee

I just recently learned how to froth my milk cold! It made a world of difference in the flavor of my iced coffee! I use a Nespresso machine and their frother for my coffee. If you hold the froth button down to start it the light will glow blue and froth your milk without heat! Amazing! Why have I never done this before?!

Sangria

 This is pretty much delicious year round! In the summer though I usually have a quick version of it so I can make a glass at a time or fill up a pitcher. And it's cheaper:) Arbor Mist Pinot Noir Mixed Berry, a cheap strong red wine, a splash of each; triple sec, OJ and club Soda over lots of ice. Boom delicious in a glass on a hot summer day! You just have to go by taste, obviously you want most of it to be the two wines. 

And of course an ice cold Summer Shandy is always good on a hot day!

What are some of your favorite drinks to have in the summer?
