We always like to have a specialty drink for each gathering and in the summertime it will always be a frozen concoction–especially when its a daytime party. I like the lite taste of watermelon, strawberries and fresh mint mixed together that supposidely makes for a great alcohol free drink. But we always add vodka and triple sec for that summertime kick. These frozen treats look and taste innocent enough but can sneak up on people. This can lead to what we call an Uber Dive which comes from a time when our friend Reid was well into the celebration and was taking some aggressive dives into the pool. Seeing possible danger ahead, we called an Uber and saw that he got home safe and sound.
