Nothing quite says summer like a good camping trip, and nothing caps off an adventurous day like a refreshing cocktail.
Last weekend, we took our RV to the scenic Bolsa Chica State Beach in Huntington Beach, and after enjoying the sun, sand, and surf, we decided to enjoy some fish tacos with a refreshing Guava Daiquiri cocktail from one of our favorite haunts, Duke’s Canoe Club at the Pier.

Duke’s has always been a favorite spot for us, known for its laid-back vibe, spectacular ocean views, and an array of delicious tropical cocktails. One of their newest drinks is Duke’s Guava Daiquiri, which has quickly become one of our favorite new drinks.
