sweet sins

Piña Colada
Sweet, sweeter, piña colada! This creamy cocktail makes every sugar heart beat faster. It tastes like summer, beach and dance. The main ingredients are made up of coconut cream, pineapple juice and rum. Incidentally, this also gives the cocktail its name, because piña means “pineapple” in Spanish. This drink is guaranteed to put you in a good mood. However, this is definitely not a low-calorie creation. Since you work with a lot of cream and cream, you should be careful, otherwise you can quickly get sick. Due to the sweetness of the pineapple and coconut, this drink does not taste very alcoholic. This makes this drink suitable for those who are not particularly fond of the taste of alcohol. Be careful, don't overdrink! Of course you can also easily convert it to a “virgin piña colada” by leaving out the rum.
The ideal drink for watching your friends play beer pong while lounging in a sun lounger with your sunglasses on. In the meantime you can get new drinking games from our drinking game book search out.

And finally ... The drink is ideal for someone craving a sweet sin. Simple and playful with a gentle note of coconut. This cocktail will transport you to a world full of palm trees and turquoise water.

Cuarenta y Tres (in German: 43er)
Watch out, it's going to be cute! The Cuarenta y Tres can definitely compete with a Pina Colada in terms of sweetness, that's for sure. The sweet liqueur can be enjoyed in different ways. It is very common to mix the 43 with cold milk. Of course, this drink is ideal for drinking games like our mugs. Because you can normally drink it in one gulp without having to choke. This is very important in a drinking game, we think 😉
The 43 itself tastes mainly of vanilla. You might think you're drinking vanilla milk... but no, it's a long drink! In Spain, 43er has been an integral part of parties for many years. The liqueur came to Germany in 2010 and is very popular today. However, other combinations are also very high. For example, 43s with passion fruit juice or orange juice. If that's too sour for you, you can stick with the milky classic. Because it's easy to drink, we recommend this drink for games like Never Have I Ever: If you're missing any kinky questions, check out our blog post!

And finally ... Cute and simple, that's how we like it. The 43 is perfect for someone who longs for a cocktail feeling without having to pull out the measuring cup and shaker. What could be better than partying with your friends in the garden on a warm summer night and playing beer pong? Right, actually nothing! That's the vibe of the fiery '43.

Mint Mint Baby

Mojito
An absolute classic among cocktails is the Mojito. A drink from beautiful Cuba with delicious mint and Cuban rum. It is a rather light drink and therefore ideal for summer. Compared to other cocktails and long drinks, it is relatively low in calories, which is of course just right for the summer figure. The ingredients are also simple. As mentioned, the drink consists of mint and Cuban rum, as well as cane sugar, lime juice and sparkling water. Nice and refreshing on hot summer days. So it's no wonder that the drink is one of the most popular cocktails in the world. Due to its lightness, you can use it as a drink in drinking games without hesitation. So if you don't feel like beer or wine, you can easily switch to a mojito. You can also decide for yourself how strong you want your cocktail to be. We think the mojito goes really well with ours mugs fits.

And finally ... Mojito should be in the Duden after the word "refreshment", that's clear. He comes across as easygoing and relaxed and fits in perfectly with his exotic origins. An absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to enjoy a cocktail without much effort.

Mojito
Mint Julep

The mint julep is an absolute classic among cocktails. Originally from the American Southern States, it spread to the rest of the United States in the early 19th century. Since it is a timeless drink, it is one of the "Contemporary Classics". It consists of fresh mint, bourbon whisky, sugar (syrup) and crushed ice. Also a relatively simple drink, often served in a copper mug. Is such a cocktail suitable for summer drinking games? Maybe not 100%, because it would be a bit of a shame about the noble ingredients. At a cocktail party with friends, however, the mint julep is sure to be a hit.

And finally ... Timeless and elegant, that is the mint julep. No unnecessary frills, just a handful of quality ingredients.

In the USA, the “White Claw” brand is the absolute market leader when it comes to “Hard Seltzer”. Well, does that tell you what? If not, don't worry. We'll enlighten you.
Hard seltzer is basically sparkling water mixed with alcohol. A flavor is usually added to the drink, such as raspberry or pineapple. Not for nothing is this light refreshment a huge success, which has now also spilled over to Germany.
It couldn't get any more summery here. Hard seltzer are perfect for drinking games as they're just refreshing chilled and very low in calories. However, caution is also required here. Although they taste like flavored water, they still contain around 5% alcohol. What flavors would you like in your hard seltzer? In Germany there are now quite a few companies that have successfully established themselves with the new beverage trend. So now the drinks from brands like Buzz hard seltzer and Holy Hard Seltzer available on the market.
So how about such a drink for the next round of mugs or beer pong?

And finally ... The new hard seltzer are THE hype for the German summer and we think: rightly so! Definitely worth getting to the bottom of. Try the varieties and find your fruity favourite!

Even if beer is still number 1 for a fun beer pong evening, these 5 drinks can still bring variety to the whole thing.
In times like these, everyone should have their own drink in hand at beer pong anyway. So why not try something different?
