Summer Cocktails : : manly drinks

Another summer Friday is here and it’s just getting warmer and warmer… Lovin’ it! This week’s Summer Cocktail is dedicated to the all the dads by keeping the Father’s Day theme going. In order to really show my appreciation for everything you dads do , I went out and found the top 3 manliest man drinks! Now, to all the men out there, if you can’t hack any one of these I won’t hold it against you as being a little less of a man than you thought you were. Hahaha!

6 oz cola
1 lime slice

Add the Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum and cola in an ice-filled pint glass and stir it. Garnish the drink with a lime slice.

Nothing says manliness more than a pint of beer, and nothing shouts manliness off the rooftops more than a pint of Guinness. Order an All-Irish Black and Tan and flash your testosterone-fueled self with pride.

1/2 pint Guinness Draught

Preparation:

Add the Smithwick’s Ale to a pint glass, and then add the Guinness by pouring it over the back of a spoon.

Happy Father’s Day!
