Six Sexy Spring Cocktails


1. Ginger Lemonade

Vodka + Ginger Ale + Lemon Juice + Mint

I love everything about this cocktail. Not only is easy to remember and simple to mix but it has just the right amount of fragrance and flavor. Careful, it goes down easy and before you know it you're blotto.

RECIPE: Mix a shot of vodka, three shots of ginger ale and the juice of half a lemon. Garnish with a mint leaf.

2. Strawberry Kir

Creme de Strawberry + White Wine

This wine cocktail makes your table a little bit more colorful, and it's an easy version of the traditional Strawberry Kir Royale.

RECIPE: Mix one part Creme de Strawberry with 4 parts very cold dry white wine. Serve in a wine glass with or without crushed ice. Garnish with fresh strawberries.

3. Gin Jubilee

Gin + Honey + Cherries + Blueberries

Most people I know prefer vodka drinks, but I've converted even the most adamant anti-gin drinkers with this easy cocktail. The Gin Jubilee is full of fruit but is not overly sweet.

RECIPE: Muddle pitted cherries and blueberries in a mixing glass. Add two shots of gin and one tablespoon of honey. Fill glass with ice and shake for 10 seconds. Strain into a cocktail or martini glass. Garnish with a cherry.

4. Campari and Ale

Campari bitters + Ginger Ale

I love Campari in almost any warm weather mixed drink, and this simple cocktail is the perfect ratio of bitter to sweet. It's a good, simple cocktail party drink.

RECIPE: Use one part Campari bitters to two parts ginger ale. Fill a glass with ice cubes. Pour in Campari and then cover with the ginger ale.

5. Mint Julep.

Simple syrup + Mint + Kentucky Whisky

RECIPE: Make a simple syrup by boiling 2 cups sugar and 2 cups water together for five minutes. Cool and place in a covered container with six or eight sprigs of fresh mint, then refrigerate overnight.

Make one julep at a time by filling a cup with crushed ice, adding one tablespoon mint syrup and two ounces of Early Times Kentucky Whisky. Stir rapidly with a spoon to frost the outside of the cup. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.

6.Woo Woo Cocktail


Peach Schnapps
Vodka
Cranberry Juice

RECIPE: fill half a glass with ice and then add 1 part schnapps, 1 part vodka to two parts cranberry juice. stir to complete.
