Vodka

I take my lemon drop martinis very seriously, but I do them a bit differently. Personally, I am not a fan of triple sec so I opt to not use it. If you want it to taste more like a boozy lemonade without the vodka burn (like I do) try 2oz lemon juice,...

This is one of those drinks that no one gets tired of drinking. It's crisp, its gingery, and honestly, you don't taste the alcohol that much. Unless you want to. It's another drink that's refreshing in the summer!

So, this is the drink of choice for those who have one intention with their night. And honestly, I get it. It also doesn't help that these are delicious. Give it a try, but make sure you're staying in for the night.

Now this is obvious. Espresso martinis are a staple.

It might be obvious where I'm from now. Anyways, give this a try. It is hands down the best way to drink a margarita in my opinion. It's sweet, it's refreshing, it's amazing.

A paloma is one of the best tequila cocktails in my opinion. The grapefruit goes really well with the tequila. If you like a bit of spiciness, try a Tajin rim as well! Definitely give this a try if you haven't already!

I honestly don't have a lot to say for thee except they're delicious, and if you don't understand the jalapeño hype you will soon.

I would say this is a very close comparison to the lemon drop martini - except with gin and honey to replace the vodka and simple syrup. If you like lemony drinks I would definitely give this a try!!

This is a very very very yummy take on the classic negroni. If you aren't super into the bitterness of a negroni, the strawberry does the job at cutting it. Give it a try!

Strawberry mojitos are the embodiment of summer, in my opinion. They're light, they're fruity, they have a refreshing touch of mint, and they're delicious! Totally worth a try.

Pina Coladas are a perfect, beachy summer treat. You can go with or without the cane sugar, depending on your preference, but I find that it's super yummy without it.

Spritzes

This aperol spritz is a drink you either love or you hate. I am personally a proponent of it, and if you like a slightly bitter, orangey wine cocktail, it's definitely worth a try. It's nice to switch it up instead of drinking liquor sometimes!

I will quite literally find any way to include lemons into a cocktail, and for good reason - they're delicious. A limoncello spritz is like a lighter, bubbly version of a lemon drop martini. It's so yummy!

I'll be honest - I haven't tried this - but I plan to soon. It looks incredibly delicious, and I do love Empress Gin. If you've tried it, let me know what you think!!
