    Hey everyone!! My bridal shower is coming up and my theme is Sex and the City. I wanted to do premixed drinks to make it easy. I found out that smirnoff makes a premixed cosmopolitan, but I have never had it before. They also make a savannah tea and tuscan lemonade. If you could please let me know which one tastes the best, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    The cosmopolitan is great, just be sure that it's cold!

    May be in the minority here, but I don't really enjoy Smirnoff drinks. Would you be willing to get a mix where you add in the vodka? Whole Foods sells a few that are pretty good, although I've never tried the Cosmo one.

    @lilyfaith:Never thought about just getting a mix then adding the vodka. Good idea, thanks.

    Okay, I got this from my college days, so don't judge, but I'll share my favorite 'mixed drink' recipe.

    Buy a 2-liter of Mt. Dew and pour it out until it's at the top of the label. Add enough vodka to fill it back up and a package of Kool-Aid. The blue flavor is the best :). 

    Surprisingly, it tastes better than any vodka-based bar drink I've ever had. It sounds uber tacky, but if you put it into pitchers or something, your guests will never know. And, I promise I won't be offended if it's not classy enough for a Sex and the City-themed gathering :o).

    @jo.lee: HAHA! that was the recipe we always made for trash can punch, except we used green Kool-Aid, it ROCKS! Sooo yummy!

    I agree with others, I think mixing your own drinks is the way to go over the smirnoff drinks. Plus to add to the Sex and the City theme, you can have cute garnishes!

    Ditto. Mix your own. You can be more creative, it will taste better, and probably be cheaper in the end :-)

    Does it have to be cosmos or any pre made drink? I'm not a huge fan of the Smirnoff drinks anymore but what about some sangria? They sell pre made ones or you can make your own. And it tastes better the longer you let it sit so you can make it a few days ahead and just put it in some pretty pitchers :)

    Blue Maui and Mountain Dew is pretty tasty, too...as well as Rockstar and UV Blue. I have a penchant for bluish-green drinks...but the Smirnoff Cosmo is pretty good, too!
