I know we've already talked about spiked summery treats this week and posting yet another article might seem a little redundant. But ladies, it is Daiquiri Day this July 19th, so naturally we must celebrate! I mean, Daiquiri Day comes but once a year (unless you're me and Daiquiri Day is any day ending in the letter y).
To help you out with your DD celebrations, I found a few thirst quenching...

You're probably still a bit scarred and you probably think Jell-O shots should best be left to the first year of university.
