Drinks for camping
We are going camping next weekend with friends.
Ok, more like "glamping" bc we're staying in cabins with AC 
Any good alcoholic drinks for me to bring?
My DH will bring tons of beer and I'll probably bring a bottle of wine or have some with the other friends we're going with.
I don't mind beer, but want something different. I had the Truly drinks, but after a while it sits in my stomach. Too much carbonation.
Any of the good can drinks worth getting? Not too sweet, but good to sit around the fire with.
Thanks

Re: Drinks for camping
I like margaritas. I don't like the 34 grams of sugar in the mixes you can buy or the premade bottles so i get Be Mixed Mixers (they might sell them in stores, but i order online) then add Tequila, a pinch of sea salt and a dash of triple sec. But for travel I'd just bring the mix and tequila.
The link here shows where you can buy them in store. And the other flavor options besides margarita.
Be Mixed
You can also do those drinks in a bag that they sell at the liquor store. The ones with the spouts. I think Barcardi makes some? Rum punch, Sea Breeze, etc.
Super easy to bring with you.
Another good option is a nice flavored vodka and club soda. I like the Ketel One Infusions because they aren't too sweet like some flavored vodkas or Grey Goose Pear. I also love Grey Goose Melon for the summer- tastes like cantaloupe!

I like berry watermelon limeade martinis. Blend berries/watermelon with simply limeade, fresh lime juice and some ice. Add vodka!

Re: Drinks for camping
Oh thought of another one. Tito's and Lemonade (or I like Raspberry Lemonade).
I get the Simply Light Raspberry Lemonade- less sugar.
Delish!

I love Crystal Light raspberry lemonade with raspberry vodka or regular vodka. It doesn't matter.
Lately I have also been taking Bacardi Limon and mixing it with a bit of crystal light lemonade, diet ocean spray sparkling cranberry and regular club soda. It's so good. It's my own low cal take on the Zippy Coolers at Houser's on Fire Island

Re: Drinks for camping
Bring the biggest bottle you can find of either Tito's or Ciroc Coconut which is also so good.
Maybe bring a few juices; so your friends can pick what to mix with it; and done!
Some ideas that I have had; Cranberry, Pineapple, or a Mango mixed juice, or even Lemonade. They all go good with vodka.

I love the new Ketal One Botanicals - especially the peach & orange blossom flavor (they also have grapefruit & rose and cucumber & mint)
(they have no carbs, no sugar, no artificial sweeteners and no artificial flavors, but are really good!)

Yes these are delicious. I only tried the Peach one but it's so smooth you can even drink it straight on the rocks! Not too sweet either.
Love!!

Oh this would probably work great for watermelon margaritas! My favorite.
Where is this? In the cold juice section?

I love moscow mules - so easy to make also. I brought the Corona Refrescas on vacation last week and they were actually pretty good.
