Thirsty Thursday: 5 Perfect Warm Weather Cocktails

I don't know about you, but when the warm weather hits, my inner mixologist comes out. I grab the nearest cocktail shaker and I get shakin'.

With an abundance of local, fresh ingredients such as blueberries, strawberries, and melons, the drinks are tastier and healthier than any other time of the year.

I've been scouring Pinterest for some of the most colorful and tasty mom beverages that I can find.

Here are 5 of my favorites:

1. Indian Summer Cocktail (mango, peach schnapps, and champagne)

2. Blueberry Pom Paradise (Stoli Blueberi Vodka, fresh blueberries and blackberries, Pom juice)

3.  Vodka-Thyme Lemonade (Vodka, lemonade, and thyme)

 

4.  Blood Orange Margaritas (freshly squeezed blood orange juice, lime juice, tequila, orange liqueur, and  simple syrup)

5. Red Sangria (make a big pitcher and the neighbors will come!)

You can thank me by inviting me over for a cocktail! ;-)

Do you have a favorite cocktail recipe for warm summer evenings?
