Shark week begins August 10, 2014 and to to celebrate we're sharing two terrifying cocktail recipes to sip on during the event. The Shark Attack combines blood orange liqueur with tequila and grapefruit juice for a lighter take on a tequila sunrise. The other cocktail, dangerous waters, is a fruity drink made with lemon vodka and a mixture of muddled summer berries.
