It’s a tough time for anyone with at least one eye on the wildly fluctuating stock market. So here’s something to make everyone feel better – or at least those adults who want to drink like children, and have valid id in case the bartender asks.

Tristan, Charleston
Cocktail popsicles, available in weekly changing flavors like Watermelon, White Balsamic Mojito and Firefly Southern Peach, are now being served in the lounge at this Charleston restaurant. The good news - they’re only $3 each. The bad news - they’re only available through Labor Day. Whether you want to down them as an aperitif or an extra chilled happy hour snack is your call.
