Cool Summer Drinks from Canned Goods?

I subscribe to a lot of daily emails and newsletters. When I received an email a few weeks ago with the a section describing yummy cocktails from canned goods I thought perhaps someone had made a mistake....but sure enough once I actually read the recipes - which utilize long-lasting staples you might already have in your pantry such as canned peaches and the always around, never disappearing fruit cocktail - I realized that this idea was actually quite possibly ingenious.

The whole idea (and the photos to the left) came from Mealtime.org, a site that is dedicated to people 'eating canned food the right way.'

I tried out a few of their recipes including the one for the drink that is pictured at the top, the Tennessee Peach, this week and I must say--they are pretty yummy and extremely yummy considering the cost and effort that goes into developing them.

Have any of you ever tried to concoct something interesting from canned goods? Any special recipes you want to share?
