Girlie Drink of the Week
No, I’ve never had it. Not because the drink doesn’t appeal to me, but because I just can NOT bring myself to order that at a bar. I turn red just thinking about saying that out loud in a room full of people.
Sex on the Beach
- 2/3 oz. Peach Schnapps
- 1 1/3 oz. Vodka
- 1 1/3 oz. Cranberry Juice
- 1 1/3 oz. Orange Juice
Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake well, and pour into a highball or hurricane glass filled with ice. Garnish with tropical fruit.
I have all that stuff here, thank goodness. Maybe I’ll try it tonight. At least I won’t have to order it


Order it after a long day tubing on the river, you’ll already be red.
And we know you want it.
I had one recently that they called Pink. It was vodka, pineapple juice, cranberry juice and something else… can’t remember, but it was good.
And I didn’t feel weird ordering it.
No, I imagine saying, “May I have a Pink cocktail?” is a lot better than “Hey, can I have sex on the beach, please??”
Around here, it’s a shooter…a fad that’s mostly passed, to the joy of bartenders all over.
