Sip, Savor, Repeat! Cheers to National Cocktail Day
Did you know that National Cocktail Day comes around every year? Since we’re all staying home right now, it’s the perfect time to celebrate the occasion with an adult beverage, preferably one starring fresh spring ingredients! Here are a few seasonally inspired cocktails to get you started. Be sure to sip responsibly!
-
Strawberry and kiwi mojito. Take your traditional rum-and-mint mojito and add fresh kiwi juice and whole strawberries to create this sweet and pretty libation.
-
Frozen mango martini. Puree fresh mango and combine it with homemade simple syrup, vodka, and ice, then enjoy this refreshing drink!
-
Red sangria. You really can’t go wrong with a glass of classic sangria! Start with your favorite red wine and brandy, then add some OJ, sugar, fresh fruit, and ample amounts of ice.
-
Melon-ball wine. A much classier way to keep your wine cool! Freeze a few balls of your favorite melon and add them to a glass of white wine with triple sec, lemon, and a dash of honey.
-
Rum Swizzle. With pineapple juice and OJ starring in this rum-based cocktail, it’ll be easy to imagine you’re on a tropical island with just one sip.
