CharlieMac Saturday Drink Specials

Its Fall time. Time for Pumpkin Spice, Oktoberfest and more opportunities to host parties because the weather is a tad more enjoyable than summer heat. So lets practice on some flavorful drinks to work on those Bartender Skills you've been polishing and then you're be the best host for all upcoming party events. Just note that you should always (ALWAYS) have ice on hand when you're mixing your drinks. Trust me, it helps. Also, most (if not all) the ingredients listed below can be found at your liquor store and/or grocery store. Let's Get Mixin'!
