Labor Day marks the final days of summer. Boating season is officially over, school is starting back up, and stores are putting out Halloween decorations – already. UGH!!

So let’s have a party! You definitely deserve it, and it is a good idea to schedule some fun with the kids before they return to classes. Make it a point to fit in some fun whether you are taking out the boat, heading to the beach, or even hanging out in the backyard; perhaps, having a picnic with friends and family. Whatever you‘re planning, let us help you enjoy your weekend with some ideas from our liquor and wine department here at Nino’s.

Truly Spiked Sparkling Six Pack-$8.99

One of my favorites; this is perfect for taking on the boat. It’s made with cane sugar, and is light, clean, and refreshing with only 100 calories, 2 grams of carbohydrates, and 5% alcohol.

All Day IPA 15 Pack

It truly wouldn’t be Labor Day without including one of the best-selling Indian Pale Ales around. It has the perfect balance of malts and hops and it’s not too heavy so you can always have more.

Rum Cobbler Cocktail

2 oz. rum
4 TBSP Simple Syrup
Mixed fruit, e.g. pineapple, green grapes, strawberries, kiwi, mango, or anything else you desire.

Prepare the fruit, by cutting it into small pieces. Fill a large, tall glass with crushed ice. Add the rum and simple syrup followed by the fruit. Serve with a straw and spoon.

For me, this is the best way to end this beautiful summer. I sincerely hope you have a great long weekend.

Have fun!
