When hosting a pool party, stock up on plenty of ice and water to ensure that guests stay hydrated. For easy access, place coolers around your backyard and fill with refreshments.

Anything with the words "pineapple," "mango" and "rum" is bound to be good.
1I agree with Hippiecowgirl, but would go a step further and say any drink recipe with the words 'blender' and 'rum' are bound to be good! Yum, think I will go buy me some mangos...
2Agreed - this combo is delish!

6That drink sounds so good. I am always glad to find new types of blender drinks, as well as new ways to use mangoes!
