We've rounded up the tastiest sips from this week's posts so you don't miss anything delicious!

This Week in Serious Eats: Drinks

1. 5 Fruity Margarita Recipes for Warm-Weather Entertaining
"These five margaritas are everything we want fruit drinks to be: balanced, flavorful, not too sweet, not too sharp or strong, and totally refreshing."

2. Ask A Bartender: What's The Worst Date You've Ever Witnessed?
"We all have our bad date stories—but bartenders have more chance than the rest of us to witness dates gone wrong."

3. 11 Combinations You Can Make from the Coca-Cola Freestyle Machine
"Nope, 127 flavors isn't enough for us; we want the mixing to begin."

4. Where to Drink in Dublin: An Irish Bartender's Guide to Pubs and More
"This guide is intended for newcomers to Dublin and should give you a very rough idea of where to go and what to drink (whilst simultaneously preventing you from coming to harm on your first night)."


5. Cocktail 101: How to Make a Perfect Mint Julep
"A proper julep is a beautiful thing, but you can't be lazy."

6. 12 Sips and Bites from the National Poetry Month Cocktail Celebration at Back Forty, NYC
"Even though many bartenders are storytellers, writers, poets, and playwrights on the side, it's rare for a group of them to get together and build cocktails inspired by bits of verse."

7. FEyewitness Booze Investigation: Van Gogh PB&J Vodka
"I trust that this is an honest attempt to get legal adults with disposable income to drink PB&J juice, at least until the inevitable launch of mac 'n' cheese rum and baloney gin."

8. Bartender's Choice: What To Order at Beretta in San Francisco
"We put bar manager Ryan Fitzgerald on the spot and asked him to choose his favorites from among Beretta's cocktails. In addition to the Single Village Fix, he mixed up a powerfully boozy sno-cone-in-a-glass, as well as an off-menu creation he'd used to win a cocktail competition the night before our visit."

9. DIY vs. Buy: How to Make Your Own Grenadine
"Real grenadine is a bit tart with a depth of flavor you just can't get from corn syrup."

10. From Behind the Bar: On Drinking Alone
"There is a stigma attached to people who drink alone in bars, but I don't share it. Some of my happiest memories are from the days when I could buy the Sunday paper and spend hours lingering over every article and a few glasses of wine."
