The final days of summer are upon us. We hope enjoy them by taking a moment to relax, go on a nice bike ride or a hike outdoors – and, of course, we hope you enjoy a cool, refreshing beverage that’s right for you.

This long weekend is anything but a holiday for the candidates making a bid for the White House in 2012.  After wrapping up the Republican National Conventions yesterday, Republican nominee Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan head for battleground states to continue campaigning while President Obama and Joe Biden gear up for the Democratic National Convention which kicks off next week in Charlotte.

For those of us not on the road campaigning, Labor Day weekend is about spending quality time with our friends and families as we soak in the last of the summer rays, and enjoy a last barbeque. Here at Sip & Savor we hope you enjoy the day, relax and replenish for the busy fall and winter months ahead.
