But hey, I'm all about trying new things. When Tim and I saw these Crantinis by Mike's Hard Lemonade at the store the other day, we thought we'd give it a try. Be forewarned -- these are tiny little bottles and it's $7.50 for four. At that price, it might be cheaper to mix your own cranberry martini.
They did taste pretty nice -- a real cranberry taste and a little kick from some alcohol. The bottles were tiny but cute. It was nice to have bubbles in the drink, but I think I could have made a similar cocktail for about the same price.
If you're in a hurry and want something other than beer, this might be a good choice though.

Hi Kelly--I'm off to Fresh Market tomorrow and will look for your cute crantinis. Good for drinking alone on Saturday night!
First time I've seen your blog and a quick scroll convinced me that I need to come back and study more carefully after Fun Monday dies down.
Hi Kelly!
thanks for stopping by my blog.
I just quit breastfeeding, so I'm able to drink for the first time in 3 years. I should have a crantini to celebrate! :)
Hi Kelly!
I'm a big fan of cranberries. I've mixed cranberry juice and cranberry vodka for a dee-lish summer drink (topped with a tad of lemon juice). Ultimately cheaper than Mike's but of course less convenient. :)
My hubby made the black bean soup and I was stunned at how good it was. I was a fan of black beans before but now... wow! ;)
crantini-hehe..even the name sounds fun.
Hi Kelly, this drink sounds really lovely with a cranberry base! One for a girly night in :D
Thank you for calling my blog I do appreciate it and I look forward to viewing you next post!

Kelly, you did invent the Lingoberry Cocktail.
Interesting stuff. I used to like their lemonades but I haven't had anything but Diet Coke to drink in ages. :) Pretty to look at though
Hey Kelly! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I have to admit that I'm a fan of the sweet girly drinks, so I love these things. I haven't seen this flavor before though. I'll have to try some. And I love your Standmixer Sundays! Very cool! : )
