Diet Cocktail Recipes: Miami Lemonade (a Pink Martini Lemonade) Low Cal Low Carb Low Fat

One of my favorite (original and healthier) COCKTAIL Recipes:


MIAMI LEMONADE (a PINK lemonade!)


1 shot Rum

1/2 shot Gin or Vodka
1/8th shot (a capful) of Amaretto

2 shots Light V8 Fusion Strawberry-Banana Juice
2 shots All Natural Simply Limeade or Lemonade
1/3rd shot KW Knudsen's Lemon Ginger Echinacea Juice (optional)

Nummm!! This drink is great for the middle of the winter. Cuz... it reminds one of those warm southern Florida beaches.

I like to shake mine with ice in my plastic Protein Shaker. I do have an old fashioned large martini shaker but the metal just gets too cold for me. Then I pour it into a martini glass. This drink would be just as good over ice. Cheers!

Movie Reviews: Punch (When Girls Fight) Martial Arts Boxing

Punch to the FaceImage by Ninja M. via Flickr
Cat Fight?
Warning: This film does contain some female nu---y. But nothing really lude... that is if you don't mind seeing it in the ring. Hmm. Maybe it is a little... Anyway, I liked it.

Thought it was clever and fun. And the women were such strong female leads that you don't feel that they are being exploited in any way.

The acting was superb and it wasn't quite as "B" as I had expected. Might have taken itself a little too seriously, though.

Still, I recommend it if you like tough girls and fight scenes (and a little family drama). I think that if it were redone as a comedy it could be quite memorable. As it is, it's just IE for me.
