Sometimes a tropical drink in Winter does makes sense...

I got the most perfect little blender of Christmas that I've been dying to use to make something delicious. So why not add a dash of alcohol to it on this chilly Friday night?

I love a good seasonal cocktail, but sometimes you just crave a taste of something out of season and you can't wait six months to have it!

So, tonight Dom and I are making our own tropical smoothie "dranks" (we're silly so we call drinks with alcohol in them "dranks"). To make our version of this delicious alcoholic smoothie, you'll need the following ingredients:

Pinnacle Tropical Punch Vodka
Orange Juice
Sparkling Tropical Fruit Juice (we got ours from Wegmans)
Frozen or fresh mixed fruit (ours is the Dole mixed fruit from the frozen section)
Ice

I didn't really measure the ingredients. We've made two drinks and both of them have different levels of each ingredient in them but they both taste amazing!

So just add your ingredients to your blender, blend for about 30 seconds or until you get your desired smoothness. Then pour it into a pretty glass and drink up!

This mixed drink almost makes me want to shave my legs and put on a bathing suit. Almost.

I'll be back on Monday talking about this past year and also my goals for this coming year (because would I really be a blog if I didn't?), but until then, have a happy, fun, and safe weekend!!
