CharlieMac Saturday Drink Specials
With Summer coming to a close, there is little time left to enjoy good summer drinks during the season for which there were intended...unless you're like some others who have drinks simply for the good taste and not care what season it is. With that in mind, here are a few drinks to welcome the end of summer to the beginning of fall. Note that you should always have ice ready when you are getting ready for some At Home Bartender fun.
