Deck Side Breeze
We may not be in the Bahamas, but you will think you are with this tropical concoction of coconut rum, pineapple juice, & a splash of cranberry.
Long Pond Tea
This tea is not for your typical Southerner! It is a concoction of tequila, vodka, gin rum, triple sec, & blue curacao blended with fresh sweet & sour mix then topped with Coca Cola!
Metter Mule
This drink sure has a kick with vodka, fresh squeezed lime juice, & ginger beer! You don't need no copper mug for this drink -- a solo cup will be just fine! Cuz 'Everything's Better in Metter'
Jingle Juice
Don't tell Dalton we put his secret drink on the menu! It starts with Crown Peach peach schnapps, triple sec, blended with Sprite! It will leave you tingling for sure!
Sex on the Pond
What could be more fun than a fruity blend of vodka, peach schnapps, orange juice, & a splash of cranberry!
Margarita Madness
Choose your potion -- fresh mango or strawberry blended margarita on the rocks! Only question is - are you sweet or salty?
Beverita
Just like its namesake, this is one of a kind! A superb margarita made with 1800 Reposado blended with fresh citrus juices, agave nectar & Grand Marnier - this 10 out of 10 is definitely worth the $15. We promise!
