Luscious Slush Punch / Strawberry Punch

This is my favorite punch in the entire world. It is like a little bit of heaven, that is the only way to describe it. Make this for a shower, a birthday party, or just a Friday night - after having this I decided no special occasion is needed to make this. You can make it with champagne, or without still tastes delicious either way. Beware my Gaty (boyfriends mother) made this and, she says it was an accident I'm calling BS -- she put 3 bottles of pink champagne in one batch - its only supposed to be one. By the end of the shower we had the alcohol flush, and giggles.

I always get so caught up when I am at a party or throwing a party, I take pictures of the food and forget to take specific shots. So all I have is a picture of it in the punch bowl.

Beer Margaritas? The BEST Margaritas, trust me

I know what your thinking. I promise I would not lead you astray, especially when there's alcohol involved.

I love margaritas, like they are the pink of alcohol for me. If its pink I want one in every color, and if someone has margaritas then give me 5! I had one of these beer margaritas long ago when I was far from of age to be drinking. Ever since I have been looking for a good recipe, and I finally found it! These are made with beer and tequila-- I recommend corona but any light beer would probably be ok. The picture is a doubled recipe and it went QUICK! They were a huge hit, I was very very pleased.
