Awesome Drinks for a Friday Night


Who doesn't like Friday nights? Just tell me who doesn't. Everybody wait anxiously for Fridays to come. This is a very special day for anybody, because it's a symbol for freedom, having a good time, a great steak, beer, wine, good music...and a good night's sleep without setting the alarm clock for the next day, because it's Saturday. Here I show you a few great and simple Friday night drink recipes for you to make at home, or at a party you've got invited and wanted to show off!

Mojito

1 tablespoon regular syrup
2 cubes of ice
1 fluid ounce carbonated water
1 sprig fresh mint
2 leaves fresh mint
1 1/4 fl. ounces of rum

Mojito always consists of 6 ingredients. This recipe comes from Cuba, but it is widespread in the United States.
In a cocktail glass, crush mint leaves with regular syrup. Add ice + rum. Top with carbonated water. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint. That's it! Now you have your friday night drink already. Go have fun!

White Russian

1 oz Vodka
1 oz Kahlua coffee liqueur
Light cream ( quantity of your choice)

Pour vodka and coffee liqueur over ice cubes in a glass. Fill with light cream and serve. That's it! ( I told you it would be easy!)

Osiris

1 oz vodka
3 oz Pepsi or Coca Cola
1 orange wedge

Osiris, named after the Egyptian God of of the afterlife. Use a highball glass. Pour the vodka over crushed ice. Pour in the Pepsi. Squeeze the orange wedge, letting the juice drip into the glass. You're done!
Now you are ready to hang-out a little bit this next friday. I will show you more up next. Have a great time, wherever you are!
