Easy Summer Cocktails

These cocktails are quick & easy to make and are excellent on a summer day (or any other time of the year really!) The recipes are listed per-glass.

Cucumber Grapefruit
1/4 grapefruit
Club soda
Organic Cucumber Vodka (such as Crop Vodka- http://www.cropvodka.com/)

Juice the grapefruit and strain the juice before adding it to your shaker. Add ice and 1-2 shots of vodka. Shake it up! Pour into a glass and add a few splashes of club soda. Garnish with a wedge of grapefruit. This drink tastes best on the rocks!



Hard Ginger Ale
Club Soda
Skyy Ginger Vodka

Again, this one tastes best on the rocks. It is half vodka and half clubs soda... it pretty much tastes like ginger ale. I have tried a few ginger vodkas and Skyy is by far the best.



Easy Pom
POM Juice (any flavor, my favorite it POM-Mango)
Vodka
Sprite or Club soda

Again, on the rocks! Add equal parts vodka, sprite and pom juice. Garnish with a lime if you are feelin' fancy!
