The Bud Light seltzer is just 100 calories and 5% ALC and comes in the classic seltzer flavors: Black Cherry, Lemon Lime, and Mango. But, unlike most other seltzers, they also feature a Strawberry flavor. If you’re looking for a different way to enjoy your spiked seltzer, try taking out your blender and making a seltzer slushie.

Strawberry Mango Slushie

While all spiked seltzers are perfect for making poolside sippable slushies, as you may have seen on TikTok, the Bud Light Mango and Strawberry flavors are perfect for combining with fruit to create a blended beverage perfect for hot weather days.

In this recipe, we will combine:

• 1/2 12oz can Bud Light Strawberry Seltzer
• 1/2 12oz can Bud Light Mango Seltzer
• 1 cup of frozen strawberries
• ½ cup of frozen mango
• (optional) splash of additional liquor such as Vodka, Rum, or Tequila

Blend to desired thickness, add ice if necessary, and enjoy. It’s that simple. 

You can also substitute some fresh fruit for froze, however, you will need to add additional ice to create the slushie effect. If you have fresh fruit available, garnish the drink with sliced strawberries.

Lemon-Lime Lemonade Slushie

A major step up from a traditional hard lemonade, these lemon-lime slushies will be your new go-to beverage for backyard picnics and barbeques. 

You will need:

• ¾ 12oz can Bud Light Lemon-Lime Seltzer (feel free to chug the other ¼)
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons granulated white sugar
• ¼ cup hot water
• ice

Begin by using the ¼ cup hot water to dissolve the granulated sugar. 

Add to blender and combine with the seltzer, lemon juice, and some ice. 

This should yield two drinks, serve in mason jars with lemon or lime wedges for a chic take on grown-up lemonade.

Do a paint-by-number.

For people who love to sit down with paint and a brush but aren’t particularly artistic, paint-by-numbers are a fun alternative to blank canvases. They come with all the paints you’ll need, brushes and a ready-made picture with numbers to correspond with the paints. Even if you’re a little tipsy, these are super fun and can be challenging if you pick the right one. Invite a few friends over to paint or do other projects with you. You’ll create a beautiful piece of art for your home and have fun doing it.

Organize your closet.

We could all use this time to bring some organization into our homes. Pour yourself a glass of vino and start with the closet. Pour another and find all the lids for your storage containers. Invite your friends and family to pick through your closet for items they want and maybe return the favor. By the end, you’ll have a more organized house and a nice buzz.

Plant something.

You don’t need much. A little potting soil, some seeds and sunny spot. A little time in the sunshine digging in the soil does the mind and body good. Research what kinds of flowers or herbs grow best in your climate and how often to feed and water them. Then sit back with a cold wine spritzer (or Budlight Seltzer) and watch them sprout and grow!

Flowers are therapeutic to grow and make your home look and smell fresh.

Start a blog or journal.

Not every one likes the thought of sitting down and writing out their thoughts. But it can be a very therapeutic process, especially when you’re anxious or have a lot on your mind. Drink a glass of wine before you sit down to write to relax you and get the juices flowing. Then just start writing. Even if it’s not Stephen King grade, you might find out a little about yourself and release some stress in the process.

Take a bath.

Nothing quite beats a glass of deep red wine and a warm bath. Dump in that anti-bacterial hand soap to make yourself feel better and sip something while you soak your worries away. Throw in some epsom salts to soothe any sore muscles and remove toxins. Pour your partner a glass too and relax in the tub together.

Enjoy the down time in your home with the ones you love- and a little bit of wine.

Luckily these days companies like Truly and even Budweiser have taken into account the vast majority of people who work hard on their bodies and also want to occasionally go hard in the paint. 

Hard seltzer is the newest addition to the alcohol scene. We’ve all been drinking seltzer anyway- that guilt-free carbonated greatness- and now we can sip it with alcohol at the end of a long day without worrying about gaining a few pounds of bloat in the process.

Lots of companies have jumped on the hard seltzer bandwagon and all boast pretty much the same stats: 100 calories per can, lots of carbonated flavors and a minimal amount of carbs and sugar. Budweiser has created their own line of Budlight Seltzers in a variety of fun flavors that taste great and won’t kill your calories for the day. They’re made with fermented fruit alcohol which is cleaner than even the most common low-cal cocktails.

For a while, you could only buy hard seltzers in the grocery store or gas station, but now thankfully bars and clubs have stocked up and you can order a Truly or Budlight seltzer almost anywhere. A whole new culture has begun in the wake of these light beverages and quite ingeniously pulled gym rats from their eight o’clock bedtimes and back into the fun.

What a time to live in. No more summer pool parties worrying about alcohol bloat. No more skipping dinner for those whiskey calories. Hard seltzer goes hard for your body and tastes delicious too. 

So go hard.

1.THE BEER BONG

A staple for every fraternity house, the beer bong is just a funnel with a tube to better facilitate your drinking. Because of the tube, the beer is forced down your throat by gravity, making it easier to chug. It is also up to the person pouring how much or how little you’re getting, so make sure you trust the person on the other end.

2. HIDDEN FLASKS

Perfect for drinking on the beach or at that family reunion you didn’t want to go to, there’s a type of flask for every occasion. There are flipflop flasks, hallowed out book flasks, tampon flasks and the good old fashioned ones you can put in your pocket. They make for less waste (just fill it from the bottle instead of using plastic cups) and a more discreet way to sip your drink uninterrupted.

3. SHOWER WINE HOLDER

We all know the story- you’re drinking a glass of wine and want to take a shower. So, you set your glass down on the side of the tub but it gets slick with water and spills all over the bathmat. Now you’re naked and cleaning up wine. Not relaxing. Thankfully now we have shower wine holders. They suction to your shower wall and hold most sizes of wine glasses. Put them up high for showers and down low for baths. Your drink stays where you put it and is easy-to-reach.

4. THE BEER HELMET

A true testament to the American spirit, beer helmets were created so you could drink two beers while watching sporting events, leaving your hands free for wings and chips. The helmet sits on your head, complete with a straw that moves the liquid straight to your mouth with ease. No more sauce prints on your beer bottles!

5. TWIST-OFF TOPS

This is one we sometimes take for granted. Back in the day, you needed a bottle opener for every beer you drank. Unless you were great at popping of bottle caps on your tooth or with a lighter, there was no getting around it. The twist-off cap was invented in the 1960s and changed the way we opened bottles forever. Budweiser even makes a screw-on cap that you can seal between sips to eliminate spillage and keep your beer fresh!

1. Shandyland

A twist on our favorite candy-themed boardgame, set the game up as normal but every time you pick a colored-square card, follow the following drinking rules:

BLUE CARD- guys drink
PURPLE CARD- girls drink
ORANGE CARD- player who picked the card drinks
YELLOW CARD- player who picked the card picks someone to drink
DOUBLE CARD- player who picked the card drinks and picks one other player to drink as well
PEOPLE CARDS- player must choose a random person/celebrity and other players must ask YES or NO questions until they guess the person. Whoever wins this challenge gets to choose who drinks.
PLACES CARDS- player must choose TRUTH or DARE and the person to the left can ask a question or dare them to do something. The player may opt out by downing the rest of their drink.

Play this game with a delightful shandy recipe using your favorite beer!

2. Battle Shots

You don’t need the game or pieces for this one, but you will need a few other items:
-12 shot glasses (size doesn’t matter)
-a divider of some sort for the middle of the table (you can even stack some books- just make sure the other team can’t see where your battleshots are)
-a marker
-light colored table cloth you can write on

Use a ruler or book to create a battle ship board on the table cloth. Label the x-axis with letters and the y-axis with numbers, place your shots and start calling out coordinates. If you have a shot on B5 and the other team guesses “B5″, you must sink your battleshot- into your mouth. Keep the shots at 1 ounce for maximum play time.

3. Twisted-er

The game of Twister is already hard enough when you’re sober. Make the rule if you fall you drink, and its hilariously impossible. Use food coloring in shots of light colored liquor to make it even more interesting. If you miss a red dot, drink a red shot.

4. Pictionary

This game gets more and more fun as it goes along. Have everyone write phrases on separate index cards. 20 phrases per person is good. It makes it fun to put inappropriate stuff on the cards, but obviously, know your audience. Phrases could be things like “Does a bear scat in the woods?” or “She’s not the brightest crayon in the box.” Divide into teams and start picking cards to draw for the other team to guess. Set a timer for 1 minute and if they haven’t guessed the phrase, they drink and your team gets a point. Whoever has the most points wins!

Aries people are natural-born leaders, fearless and energetic, they constantly have to keep themselves busy. Socially, they are engaging and have strong magnetism that keeps them the center of attention.

MANHATTAN
2 oz whiskey
1/2 oz vermouth

TAURUS

Taureans are practical people who pride themselves on being reliable and down-to-earth. They work hard to earn the finer things in life and enjoy being secure in love and finance. Patient and humble, they often keep their problems to themselves until its gone too far- in which case they become the angry bull! This cocktail combines Taurus’s love for lavish things with their stable temperament:

BELLINI
2 oz peach puree
4 oz sparkling wine
garnish with a peach slice

GEMINI

People of The Twins sign are intelligent and witty but can also be emotionally unstable and quite sensitive. They always try to gather as much information as possible to come to the most accurate conclusion about any subject. Sometimes Geminis can have trouble communicating love to their partners- which is where this little truth serum cocktail comes in:

LA PALOMA
2 oz tequila
1/2 oz lime juice
pinch of salt
splash of grapefruit soda

CANCER

Cancers like to stay home- like a crab in its shell. They feel everything very deeply and can easily become upset if their world is not exactly the way they like. Cancers are super devoted to their families and loved ones but must watch their moodiness, as they cannot control everyone’s behavior. This cocktail makes for a good mood for all you grumpy Cancers:

HAPPY APPLE
1 oz vodka
2 oz sour apple liqueur
1 oz apple juice

LEO

Leos are the most creative and ambitious of the zodiac signs. They thrive to be the center of attention and often fall into the traps of social media- wanting to be the most attractive, most successful, most fun. Leos should try this cocktail to bring a little self-introspection into their lives and consider what’s really important:

THE THINKING CAP
2 oz bourbon
splash of rootbeer
splash of orange bitters
garnish with an orange peel

VIRGO

Virgos love to stay practical and rational, even when things are falling apart. They are delicate and warm on the inside, though they may seem cold to others because of their rational demeanor. This cocktail will help even the most conservative Virgo open up and show the emotions they have inside:

CHALINO
3 oz tequila blanco
1/2 tbsp. creme de cassis
1/2 oz. lemon juice
1/2 oz. lime juice
1/2 tbsp. simple syrup

LIBRA

Libras are kind and warm with an innate ability to enjoy the little things. It is hard to rile up a Libra, as they are great at being diplomatic and hate conflict. They’d rather side with you and keep the piece than be right. To hone this peacekeeping skill, Libras should try this cocktail:

FRENCH CONNECTION
2 oz cognac
2 oz amaretto

SCORPIO

Scorpios are the volcanoes of the zodiac. While their personalities are huge and mostly wonderful, they can also be quite volatile and erupt at any moment over the smallest inconvenience. Scorpios are known for having keen intuition but can often veer towards jealousy if they’re not careful. To focus more on what they bring to the table, Scorpios can sip on this introspective cocktail:

JEAN HARLOW
2 oz light rum
2 oz sweet vermouth
garnish with a lemon peel

SAGITARIUS

YAKA HULA HICKEY DULA
1 1/2 oz dark rum
1 1/2 oz dry vermouth

CAPRICORN

Here’s a mixed drink for Capricorn people who want to get a little more accomplished today:

BLACK RUSSIAN
2 oz vodka
2 oz coffee liqueur
splash of cola
serve with a cherry

AQUARIUS

Aquarians have high expectations of people. They have strong, dominant personalities and constantly seek alone time while they sift through their own thoughts. They are the “forgive but not forget” sign and once you wrong an Aquarius, you’ll always have a bit of the cold shoulder from them. This cocktail is good to sip alone for Aquariuses trying to be a bit more tolerant:

WHITE WINE SPRITZER
3 oz chilled white wine
1 oz club soda
garnish with an orange peel

PISCES

Pisces people are gentle, nurturing and emotionally sensitive to the needs of others. They like to meander through life with a smile and try to avoid conflict if they can. Because of their “just keep swimming” mindset, they sometimes expect problems to work themselves out than actively try and solve them. This is a drink perfect for Pisces people trying to get their act together:

DARK AND STORMY
2 oz dark rum
1 oz tequila
splash of ginger beer
2 oz freshly brewed espresso

The post What Mixed Drink Should You Try Based on Your Zodiac Sign? appeared first on Beer, Wine, Liquor Delivery - BeerRightNow.com.

1. KARSK

Karsk is a beverage popular in the rural parts of Sweden and Norway. It is a mix of moonshine and weak coffee served hot with a spoonful of sugar to help it go down. If the drink is too strong, it can be lit on fire to burn some of the moonshine and bring the alcohol content down a bit.

The word Karsk means healthy and vigorous in Old Norse- which makes total sense for a drink combining caffeine with moonshine.

2. SNAKE WINE

Yes, snake wine is what the name suggests- a venomous snake is placed inside a bottle of rice wine or grain alcohol (usually alive) and breaks down in the liquid for months before consumed. Because the venom is broken down by the alcohol, it is safe to drink. Snake wine originated in China but is found in Vietnam as well. It was created to capture the essence and virility of the snake but cannot be exported due to the endangered nature of most of the snakes used to prepare it.

3. KUMIS

Kumis is an ancient brew created by fermenting mare or donkey milk for days until it becomes alcoholic. In the past it was made in saddlebags as people moved from place to place or deep wooden casks. It originated in Turkey but no one is quite sure how long ago people began making it. Kumis is considered its own alcohol class, as its made from milk instead of fruit or grain, and is still enjoyed today in the summer months when animals are roaming their pastures.

4. ABSINTHE

Absinthe is a misunderstood alcohol. It is rumored to cause hallucinations much like LSD or psilocybin, but in reality doesn’t make you any more drunk than any other liquor of its potency. It is generally a greenish color and is made with anise, grand wormwood flowers and other herbs according to where its made.

Absinthe has a long and uncertain history, making appearances in both ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece before being spread all over Europe and later to the Americas. Because of its strength, it was outlawed in many countries and is still banned for sale in the United States.

5. CYNAR

If you were to create a new alcoholic drink, I doubt the first flavor that comes in mind is asparagus-  but that’s exactly what cynar is made from. It is low sugar and 16% ABV. An Italian liquor, it is often consumed before a meal to stimulate the appetite or afterwards to aid with digestion. It is enjoyed across Europe and often mixed with orange juice or even eggnog to curb the bitter taste.

Thankfully, there are a myriad of hacks to help you enjoy some adult beverages without ruining your diet. Here are our favorite low-carb cocktails:

1. Hard Seltzer

Hard seltzer is the alcohol created for the low-carb community. With only 2g of carbs and 1g of sugar per can, this is a delicious way to wind down guilt-free at the end of a long day. Budlight makes a great hard seltzer in a variety of flavors and all are made with cane-sugar alcohol which is healthier than the alternatives. Great to drink chilled by the pool showing off your summer bod.

2. Tequila

Tequila is a low-carb liquor that even the Rock enjoys drinking. As long as you don’t mix it with any sugary juice, it can be consumed in moderation without derailing your diet. Here’s a lovely little keto cocktail you can order anywhere or make at home.

6oz sugar free soda or fruity seltzer
2 oz white tequila
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
ice cubes
salted rim

3. Wine

Wine is a great choice if you’re actively trying to reduce the amount of carbs and sugar in your diet. What type you should choose depends on your goals.

If you’re concerned about insulin or blood sugar spikes, stick with dry reds like merlot. It is unlikely to significantly affect blood sugar levels and usually has less than 2g total carbs per glass. If you’re already pretty fit or maintaining, even a sweet glass of Riesling clocks in at about 4g carbs.

So have a glass and check yourself out in the mirror, hottie.

4. Vodka-Soda

Vodka-soda is the unsung hero of having fun while keeping your habits in check. Vodka is a zero-carb ally with only about 70 calories per 2.5oz shot. Combined with 0-calorie soda water and a few limes, this is the perfect mixture to give you a little fun without the worry later. Add a little Stevia to sweeten it and some mint leaves for a classic Mo-keto!

5. Low-Carb Beer

You already gave up cookies but you don’t have to give up a cold beer on a hot day. In the wave of low-carb and keto options come a host of beers that boast great hops taste with less carbs. One of the best options is Budweiser Select 55. It has 99 calories and only 3g of carbs per bottle. Crack open a cold one while you examine your abs coming in.

Alcohol in moderation can be a great compliment to your low-carb or keto diet. So stop worrying and enjoy your body in whatever shape its in.

For example, when it’s 85 degrees out and you’re poolside sitting in the sun, do you think you really want to drink a porter or a stout? I would hope not… I love all beer but even that sounds deathly. Instead, you would probably have a lighter beer. Not necessarily a “light” beer but maybe something more in the color range that doesn’t look like you’re going to drink a glass of motor oil.

Maybe bust out an awesome ginger ale like Crabbie’s or a Corona and just about any other beer you can wedge a lime into! So leave that anchoring, warm me up beer at the door and save it for fall fest because summertime is almost here!

Cheers!
