Party Drinks

One cannot party on cheesecake alone, they need something to wash it down with. So here are the two yummy drinks I whipped up for the House Party over the weekend. The first is simple and easy: lemon infused water.
Step One: gather some lemons
Step Two: cut up the lemons
Step Three: pour water into pitcher
Step Four: put lemons in the pitcher of water
Step Five: refrigerate for at least two hours, I let it chill over night
Step Six: ENJOY!

If you're lucky your brother will give you one of these cool infuser pitchers for Christmas.


The other drink I made has a little bit more two it but still easy as pie.

Lime Sherbet Punch

Ingredients:
2 quarts lime sherbet
2 liters ginger ale
1 (46-ounce) can pineapple juice
Lemon Slices
Lime Slices
Maraschino cherries

Directions:
In a punch bowl, (my punch bowl actually was not big enough so I used a really big pot) add 2 quarts of lime sherbet. Then add ginger ale and pineapple juice. Decorate with lemon and lime slices and some maraschino cherries.

Or do what I did and just dump everything and mix it together. Depends on how anal you want to be about presentation. I figured it was all going to get stirred together eventually anyway so I went a head and did it. I was also sad when my cherries sank but oh well.

Lemon and Lime Slices

Punch!!

I hope these lovely beverages will help to keep your party guests hydrated as then enjoy whatever festivities you may have planned for them.
