With one of boxing’s biggest nights coming this weekend, 1800 Tequila was kind enough to introduce two new cocktails to keep your boxing party entertained from all angles.

Mayweather’s Drop Shot

¾ oz. 1800® Silver Tequila

¼ oz. Triple Sec

Rim shot glass with salt, add tequila and triple sec

Chase with a lime wedge

Margarito’s Master

1 oz. 1800® Silver Tequila

1 oz. light beer

1 oz. lemon-lime soda

1 oz. frozen limeade concentrate

Shake well until limeade dissolves completely, add ice and garnish with a lime wedge

Just as we’re getting a bit of summer heat here and there, it’s time to start mentally planning all your BBQ’s and trips to the beach. It would be a lie if we said we don’t drink alcoholic beverages at these gatherings, so why be the person that brings the usual drinks? Try on your hands on this new drink from 1800 Tequila, the 1800 Ultimate Pomegranate Ready-to-Drink Margarita. Created with 100% Agave 1800 Silver Tequila and blended with the flavor of pomegranate and Persian lime extract. The 1800 Ultimate RTD Margarita is one of the fastest growing ready-to-drink brands on the market, and is one of the few 100% agave tequila-based RTD’s on the market. 1800® Silver Tequila is already present in the 19.9 proof mix, taking away the hassle of measuring and mixing, and making the ease of portability and clean up the perfect choice for partygoers this season.

“The original 1800 Ultimate Margarita Ready-to-Drink has been hugely popular with our consumers, and we are excited to expand the brand with the inclusion of the new pomegranate flavor,” said Elwyn Gladstone, VP of Marketing for Proximo. “Our collection of quality spirits is ever-growing, and we are pleased to offer our loyal customers this new flavor just in time for summer.” The 1800® Ultimate Pomegranate Ready-to-Drink Margarita will be available in 1.75 ml bottles for $19.99.

Sure, you may still be drying off from the St. Patrick’s Day Parade, but good news is that you can get away with recycling your leprechaun costume again this weekend. We won’t judge. So, trash the fisherman poncho and neon galoshes and start makin’ plans.

There are very few men that I’m jealous and Bronques of lastnightsparty.com is one of them and if you are familiar with his site, you would understand why… and for those who don’t have a clue, let me break it down for you. Bronques travels the world and attends some of the livest events/parties and somehow with the magic invested in him, he manages to get gorgeous women to photograph and miraculously they undress for him and flesh appears. But it’s more than just taking photos of these women that make Bronques such a good lad, its the fact that he embodies the NY nightlife scene and displays it the way it should be: REAL.

Recently, Bronques launched LastNightsParty TV which follows selected individuals and we witness “normal” behavior that goes on in their lives and how they all intertwine with one another but from a Downtown NYC point-of-view.

We thank you Bronques, Live Strong!

Brooklyn continues to become the mecca of all things cool in New York; as the summer finally comes around and shares it bright smile so does Brooklyn Bowl. Introduced to the public last night, the renovation of a former iron foundry in Williamsburg holds it’s massive frame of 23,000 sq. ft., and showing that it cares for the earth by ONLY serving beer on tap (no bottles or cans). The rest of the interior boast a state of the art audio and video system, 35-ft wide stage for performances, and a food menu by Blue Ribbon.

Let us not forget about the bowling. 16 new lanes will be anchored by hi-def screens and lounge-worthy Chesterfield couches to relax in. While you’ve got your sights on your lane, keep your ears peeled – the venue is staged as much for music as it is for pins. Veteran producers from The Knitting Factory and The Wetlands have fine-tuned the acoustics to a perfect 300. More images after the jump

There’s no denying that there is a large group of older women that crave younger men from time to time (or all the time). It’s been proven in films such as The Graduate, American Pie and fantasies all over the globe. These older women, more popularly known as cougars come in very handy; they offer counseling, networking, financial help and more importantly, they offer stress-free sex…really good stress-free sex at that.

BlackBooks’s Ben Barna gives us the inside scoop on where to find these “kind” women around the New York city area, you better believe these locations are going in the iPhone ASAP.

Here’s a excerpt:
