One of the web series that I was able to watch as part of this year's Hollyshorts Film Festival was Play It By Ear. Emily Ann Zisko is the co-writer. co-director, and lead actress for this web series. Emily actually found me on Instagram and sent me the link to watch all of the episode, which you can watch on YouTube, and the show was great. Go check it out, here is the link: Play It By Ear

\n
• 750ML\xa0bottle of rum
\n
• 1\xa0gallon\xa0lemonade
\n
• 750ML\xa0bottle of vodka (I recommend Western Son, you could even use one of their flavors)
\n
• 1/2\xa0gallon\xa0orange juice
\n
• 1/2\xa0gallon\xa0fruit punch
\n
• 16\xa0oz\xa0cranberry juice
\n
• 2\xa0oranges, sliced
\n
• 1-2\xa0cups\xa0club soda\xa0optional
\n

\n

Directions

\n

\n
1. Add the sliced strawberries to the bottom of a\xa0beverage dispenser\xa0or\xa0punch bowl.
\n
2. Then pour in all of the liquor and juices and stir.
\n
3. Toss in the sliced oranges. You can also add in any additional fruit that you wish.
\n
4. Top with club soda.
\n
5. For best results, allow the punch to sit for up to 12 hours/overnight. You want the fruit to soak up the liquor.
\n

\n

Notes

\n

\n
• Makes a little over 2 gallons/2 1/2 gallons of punch.
\n
• I also used fresh lemons to garnish the punch. This is optional and you can use whatever fruit you wish.

Scotch or Martini for Episodes 4-6 (https://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/martini-cocktails-2009):

\n

Scotch

\n

\n
• Scotch is\xa0best served at room temperature. Add water, if desired, little by little to your taste. If you do prefer cold scotch however, fill your glass with ice rather than adding one or two cubes. More ice will keep your scotch chilled, without diluting it too much.
