Nothing quite beats sipping an ice-cold cocktail at the height of summer. It’s the best way to enjoy the weather and stretch out in the sun. Here are some of the most vibrant summer cocktails that are positively bursting with flavor.
Tequila Sunrise
Simple to make. Divine on the taste buds. And with the appearance of a Caribbean sunset, the Tequila Sunrise is one of the best classic summer cocktails. Simply pour tequila, orange juice, and grenadine into a glass, and the liquid does all the rest!
Vodka Spritzer
This tangy vodka spritzer is just what you need on a hot summer’s day. It’s bubbly, fruity, and has just enough sweetness to complement the subtle tang to the cranberry.
Mojito
This summer classic is a must for any cocktail party. Spruce it up with a mix of summer herbs and balance the flavors with lime, rum and fresh mint.
Watermelon Martini
Watermelon is perhaps the most refreshing summer fruit of all. Not only does it taste great, but it adds a rich red color to cocktail mixes. Try balancing the sweetness of the watermelon with vodka and tangy lime. You can add a garnish of mint leaves or slide a watermelon wedge onto the side of the glass.
