Making your own mixed drinks for a party or social gathering can impress your friends and allow you to offer a wider selection of beverages. Simple drink mixes that combine only a few ingredients are fast to prepare and easy to keep on hand for a last-minute get-together. A "Bay Breeze" is a easy drink that combines only three ingredients and offers a light, tropically-inspired fruit mixture. Any drink that features "Breeze" in the name uses a mixture of vodka and cranberry juice. Drinks are then differentiated by a third ingredient. For a "Bay Breeze" the third ingredient is pineapple juice.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HS_74lAmmrw Discover the process of making a "Bay Breeze" through this mixed drink guide.

Collect vodka, pineapple juice and cranberry juice. Opt for higher quality juices and your favorite vodka for best results. You will also need a pint glass, ice and a measuring glass. If you can measure liquids by feel, there is no need for the measuring glass.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HS_74lAmmrw

Fill your pint glass to the top with ice. Measure 1.5 ounces of vodka and pour over the ice in your glass. Add pineapple juice until your glass is two-thirds full. Top off your glass with cranberry juice.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HS_74lAmmrw
