Kickoff to Summer Cocktails

Slushy Watermelon Mojitos

Well just in time for your Memorial Day Parties and BBQ’s I have the perfect cocktails to compliment the occasion. The Slushy Watermelon Mojitos above are absolutely fabulous. This is crowd pleaser.

Memorial Day Cocktails

The perfect group of cocktails mixed with good food and friends are the right ingredients for your party. The Berry Lemonade (#1) is so very refreshing. It’s made with raspberry liqueur and is easy to mix.

The Lime Collins drink #2 is an excellent version of a classic and  so perfect on a hot summer day.

The gin, campari and the Sweet red vermouth that make up the Negroni (#3) are the perfect combination. The Negroni’s bittersweet edge is  thirst-quenching and tasty.

The Peachy Punch #4 rounds out the list and is mouth-watering, and delish, this is my favorite. Use fresh peaches and there is nothing sweeter.

So relax, sip on these great cocktails and enjoy the party.
