As the holiday season kicks off with parties and winter festivities,
AAA is reminding designated drivers not to drink before they
drive.
Each
year, more than half a million people are injured in alcohol-related
auto accidents.
To help
encourage sober driving, AAA has teamed up with some of the
top names in hospitality such as Le Meridien and Utah's own
Stein Eriksen Lodge to provide the recipes listed below for
delicious non-alcoholic drinks.
The drinks are all easy to mix, and they may be sampled at
Trolley Square on December 11 from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m., and
at the South Towne Center on December 16 from 5:00 to 7:00
p.m.
