Pink Lemonade Cocktail

We used to make this in college, but we called it "Blackout Bucket". I was looking up summer drink recipes for a party I am throwing on Saturday and came across this familiar gem. We would always use a 24 pack of light beer, a handle of vodka and the whole container of pink lemonade mix in a styrofoam cooler. When I make it on Saturday, I'm going to be a little more sophisticated and add cranberries like you do!!

OMG, I can't believe it, this drink actually tastes good! I had SERIOUS doubts about the beer.....and I'm a beer drinker! I was so hesitant, I just poured the first beer in very slowly thinking I was going to ruin the drink. I tasted it and surprise.....delicious. In went the other bottles. Serving this to the girls tonight and can't wait to debut "my" special cocktail.

This was delicious and refreshing. Thought it would be too syrupy w/ straight concentrate, but it was perfect and easy. Recommend serving immediately; make more batches as needed.

I've made this for a couple different occassions (football parties, ladies night, etc.) and it's a crowd pleaser with everyone. I always get asked for the recipe and no one can believe the combination is beer and vodka! So tasty, the only problem is moderation.

This is a great recipe. It is easy to make, and isn't too sweet. My friends that don't care for beer loved this recipe. This is a must for parties.
