Summer time is a great time for friends and family get-togethers and keeping it easy is just what we look for when planning. I love mixing up big pitchers of beverages for both cost saving reasons and ease of serving. You can also do that with cocktails too. This summer refresher, made with Sparkling Ice, is just right for a nice pitcher full and one that you and your guests will enjoy. Cherry and orange flavors? Yum!

4 oz. Cherry Limeade SPARKLING ICE
