I have a 16 hours pub crawl to do in the Keys this weekend so I need to find something basic to stick with for the duration

Thanks Sharky, that was exactly what I needed.

We have a mixed group ranging in age from 3 to 70 so a blender full of fruity drinks is in my not so distant future!

Don't worry we'll water down the toddler's drinks a bit ;)
