The SOTB needs an "official drink" for our trip.
It seemed to be so much fun for the DBFT. :D

Come up with a drink that would appeal to us and you will win one of our koozies! 8)

This is almost too simple, but it's delicious, light, and perfect for sunny warm weather:

- lots of ice
- vodka
- Fresca
- lime wedge

Pour about a shot of vodka (more or less depending on your mood! :wink: ) into the ice and fill the rest up with Fresca. Then squeeze the juice from the lime wedge on top and throw it in.

The other reason I love this drink is that the only calories in it are from the juice in the lime wedge!

And p.s. I call it "Fredka".

Where do you buy calorie-free vodka?

Hey Rick,

You'll have to make it later than 4:30 cuz some of the group doesn't get in til' after that.

My bad. I was under the impression that a shot of vodka had minimal to no calories.

Still though! Ha.

If it will help, we can just assume that I was the one that had it wrong! :twisted:
