Thanksgiving is fast-approaching and we want to help you get all your bases covered! We have a fun and easy way to keep your Cascade Ice drinks chilled so that your guests stay refreshed throughout the day.
Instead of having a bulky ice cooler for all your drinks, use a seasonal pumpkin ice bucket. To make your own, clean out a pumpkin and place a glass bowl inside to hold the ice. Once your bowl is ready, you can fill up your pumpkin with all your favorite Cascade Ice flavors!
If you’re wondering what you can mix up with your chilled Cascade Ice, try our Fall Apple Tini. Use your mixer to stir 1ozof vodka, 4 oz of Cascade Ice Zero Calorie Apple Tini Mixer and some apple wedges. Once you’ve stirred the contents, strain into your martini glass and enjoy! If you want to pull out all the stops, add an apple wheel to the glass.
This is a fun and simple way to keep those delicious drinks cold and add some cute decorations to your home for fall. Do you have any great decorating ideas?
