Summertime Drink Recipes

by Cascade Ice on June 21, 2012

It’s officially summer! And whether you have plans to soak up the sun on an exotic beach or in your own backyard, now is the perfect time to relax and unwind with tropical-inspired refreshments. So ditch the sugary, high-calorie options for the delicious Cascade Ice versions (your bikini will thank you)!

Coconut is the quintessential tropical drink ingredient. Bring out that yummy coconut essence with a Cascade Ice Coconut Pineapple Cooler. Start by combining a cup of frozen pineapple and a few ice cubes in a blender. Next, add 6 oz of Cascade Ice Zero-Calorie Coconut and 1 oz of your favorite rum. For an added twist, try adding a splash of Cascade Ice Zero-Calorie Piña Colada Mixer.

For a relaxing summer day, Cascade Ice Strawberry Guava Slushies are the perfect (and kid-friendly!) choice. Start with 1 ½ cups of fresh strawberries in a blender. Pour in 6oz of Cascade Ice Zero-Calorie Strawberry Guava and get to blendin’! If you’re in the mood for something extra fruity, add a chopped banana. Yum!

Snow Day Drink Recipe

by Cascade Ice on January 20, 2012

While half of the country is already seeing spring-like temperatures, the other half is still experiencing winter weather! And if you’re lucky enough, work or school may have even been canceled because of a gusty snowstorm!

We have the perfect recipe for those snowed-in days and it all starts with Cascade Ice’s 0-Calorie Sparkling Coconut Water.

Grab a tall glass, and place four maraschino cherries at the bottom. Take a spoon and gently crush the cherries to squeeze out a bit of juice. Then, fill 1/3 of the glass with pineapple juice.

Lastly, fill the glass to the top with chilled 0-Calorie Cascade Ice Coconut Water! Stir gently to mix the flavors together, and voila! You’re got one tasty beverage. Low calorie, full of flavor and perfect for those snowy January days.
