Ooh summer, you are the one for me! I love me some sitting in the sun (slathered in sunscreen, of course), sipping a lovely cocktail, & spending time with my girlfriends.
I thought I’d share some of my favourite drink recipes with you, because hoo boy are they tasty!
Sangria
Ingredients:
- 4 oz. Chambord
- 1 L red wine
- 1 cup raspberries, crushed
- 1 cup strawberries, halved
- 1 large orange, sliced
Combine in a pitcher. Refrigerate for a couple of days. Pour the liquid into a glass halfway, scoop in some of the fruit. Top with club soda or ginger ale. Yum yum!
Luscious Lemonade
Ingredients:
- Lemonade
- 1 oz. whiskey
Pour the whiskey into a rocks glass over ice. Top with lemonade. Super-refreshing!
Berry Slammer
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup raspberries, pureed (I just whizz them in my magic bullet for a few minutes)
- 1 oz. raspberry vodka
- Juice of one lemon
- Club soda
Combine all of the above in a glass. Drink up!
I hope you have a great time with these drinks & your friends—& please enjoy responsibly!
