Iced Tea cocktails will quench that summer thirst

Iced tea is refreshing and iced tea cocktails can quench that summer thirst.

Iced tea is often a popular beverage choice and iced tea cocktails are a fun twist on that classic thirst quencher. Whether you take your tea sweet, unsweetened or even cold brewed, that classic beverage can get a little “adult” upgrade. From popping open a can to creating a slushie, what will you be sipping at the next summer barbecue?

For many people who prefer to skip the soda, iced tea is top choice. From bottled varieties to homemade sun-tea to everything in between, this beverage option has almost limitless choices.

Since so many people like the flavor of iced tea, iced tea cocktails have become a popular summer choice. Whether paired with summer barbecue or just slowly sipped on a lazy summer afternoon, many of these cocktails have the classic iced tea flavor but with a little boost from alcohol.

If you prefer to just pop open a can instead of shaking up a cocktail, the Crook & Marker Spiked Teas are a perfect choice. Each can features real, brewed tea. At only 80 calories a can, zero added sugar and no artificial flavors, it tastes like the tea you would make at home, just a little better.

Available in four flavors, the raspberry tea is delicious. The touch of sweetness is just right. Whether drunk on its own or with a meal, you might want to pop open a second can.

If you prefer frozen iced tea cocktails, this simple idea could become the next backyard party must have. Twisted Tea is offering its summertime bag-n-box win a Big Ol’ Bag of Freedom design.

While this bag can be just refrigerated and tapped to keep that Twisted Tea flowing, there is another option that could make you next gathering full of twisted fun.

Luckily, Twisted Tea shared how to make this spiked tea slushie. It is so easy that you might want to make one every weekend.
