For me, two things come to mind when I think of summer: thirst-quenching, delicious drinks and friends. Now, if only there was some sort of event you could attend with your friends that catered to this thirst-quenching summer fantasy… Luck you, metro Detroiter! All month long, you’ll be able to attend these events that have one thing in common: making sure you’re never thirsty. So, bottom’s up and have a blast this summer!
