We’ve celebrated the 4th and now we have all weekend to keep the party going. We know a lot of you, like us, will be day drinking this weekend, just keep these rules in mind:
- It’s never too early to start. Hopefully you’re drinking a mimosa as you read this.
- Newsflash: wearing red, white and blue is cool. Wearing the flag (i.e. on your bathing suit, jean jacket, ripped shirt), not so much.
- Pace yourself: all-day drinking is fun, but there is no need to end your day at 4PM.
- Sports are usually a part of the festivities. Play volleyball, but try not to spike anyone in the face.
- Industry secret: Drink lots of water, we recommend one glass of water for every alcoholic beverage.
- If you’re outside, remember the sunscreen. No one wants their face the same color as their Bloody Mary.
- Remember to eat. And yes, the food can have beer in it.
- Beer pong is American. Celebrate your country and play at least one round.
- There’s nothing wrong with a catnap. After drinking all day, take a little snooze so you can rally.
- Give America the respect she deserves. Cheers to the U.S.A., all weekend long.
- If you’re mixing, be aware of the consequences. You know the saying: Beer before liquor, never been sicker.
- Day drinking could involve keg stands. If it’s too much for you to handle, pump your beer and get out of the way.
- Heat and alcohol do not go together. Remember to keep cool—go for a dip or chill in the A.C. for a few minutes.
