Cocktails for a Crowd or for Just One, Deep Eddy Can Handle It All! #Recipes

This is the really big holiday for the summer! This officially kicks off everything as it’s hot, humid and sunny someplace across this country (and right now it is hot and sunny here in Southern California with triple digits being felt in many areas). What’s the best way to cool off fast? How about a great cocktail since is 7/3/2015 and it’s Friday! Do you need more of a reason to mix up a cocktail? No… unless you plan on mixing up a lot of cocktails this weekend or even this evening because you are inviting friends and fam over!
