So we decided to start Thirsty Thursday over here on Just Us Girls because, well, because we all deserve to have a drink to whine down to relax and why not share it with the rest of our readers.
I first made this in the beginning of Summer after searching YouTube for something new to drink and bring for our annual camp-out weekend. I made all flavors of the original jolly ranchers except cherry and grape. I don't know, the thought of the two just made me think of cough syrup medicine I use to take as a kid and that didn't appeal to me then and it certainly wasn't going to make it into my drink now. Out of the other three flavors I did make, Watermelon was the one that had the best taste to the majority of the people at the camp-out which lead me to making a Watermelon Spritzer. Instead of making the vodka out of Smirnoff, we decided to get a little fancy and make it with Grey Goose, which turned out a lot smoother and was a lot nicer to take shots with.
