Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

If you're looking for simple party treats, these mini turtles are absolutely unbeatable. Three ingredients and just a few minutes of your time.

40 miniature hard pretzels
40 chocolate covered caramel candies (such as Rolo)
40 toasted pecan halves
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the pretzels in a single layer on the baking sheet. Place one piece of candy on top of each pretzel. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake at 300 degrees F for 3 minutes or until the candy is soft and just starting to melt.
Place a pecan half onto each candy topped pretzel. Press the pecan into the soft candy so the chocolate and caramel expand into the pretzel. Let cool completely.
Store the pretzel turtles in an airtight container at room temperature (or freeze if desired).

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
