San Diego’s Best Beach Beverages
7 Drinks Perfect for Sipping on the Sand
San Diego summers are meant to be spent outdoors with a drink in hand, watching the sun set beyond the ocean horizon and watching the sky turn to dusk. sparkling, refreshing beach beverage to sit back and enjoy the sun and the sand.
Since alcohol isnt legally allowed on most San Diego beaches, if you do decide to imbibe, be discreet. Make sure not to bring any glass to the beach, drink in moderation, and keep your cocktails simple! Here are my seven picks for delicious beach beverages that are as easy as popping open a can:
