You may have noticed by the increase in heat when you step outdoors that we are in the midst of the "Dog Days of Summer." This year the hottest and most humid portion of the season falls between July 22 and August 22. That means there are still quite a few hot days ahead of us, so today Savage Scorpions has a few cool and refreshing drink ideas to help you beat that heat.  Pineapple & Jalapeno Infused Vodka Cocktail from PhysicalKitchness.com With the cool freshness of pineapple, the slight heat of a jalapeno, and that special vodka kick, this summertime cocktail is both flavorful and refreshing.

Tequila + Savage Scorpions = A Deliciously Savage Match!

Image
We've got another annual "holiday" coming up that is the perfect celebration to add a few Savage Scorpions to - National Tequila Day on July 24! While often enjoyed as a great scorpion shot , tequila is the main ingredient in quite a few popular cocktails as well. Here are a few we highly suggest giving a try.  Margaritas Most likely the first drink to come to mind when someone mentions tequila is a cold, refreshing, margarita.  These come in just about every flavor, color, and size imaginable. Our unique cocktail garnish looks great served on all of them!  A classic lime margarita is made of tequila, an orange liqueur (like triple sec,) and lime juice served either frozen or over ice in a glass with a salted rim. The addition of agave syrup can be made if you need a bit of sweetness added and some people choose to substitute sweet & sour mix in place of the fresh lime juice. Those ingredients will get you started, but with an internet search or suggestion...

Savage Scorpions has a few helpful tips for you to make sure the hot spot at any party, your bar, is well-stocked and ready to impress your guests.  Decide on a Drink Menu There are a couple of important factors that will figure into the creation of your drink menu. Personal preference, of course, because you'll want to serve drinks you know you and your friends enjoy. Your budget is another important thing to keep in mind.  If money's no object or you already have a large collection of different types of alcohol stocked up, it may be no problem to offer any and all drink combinations. If you're trying to stick to a tighter budget, you may want to limit your guests' choices.  A nice selection of beers and wines is usually enough to satisfy most party-goers. For a summertime party, be sure ...
