Living in the Midwest, Spring hits a bit later, so the Mint Julep rings in the fresh green season for me.
A garden party! With gin, mint, and green chartreuse.
Spring means mint and rhubarb! I love combining them by making a rhubarb syrup, adding rum, muddled mint, and club soda. So refreshing!
I always like blender drinks in the spring and summer.
I also want to say that Calamansi are my most favorite thing in the world and the rest of the basket would just be icing on the cake if I were able to get my hands on a jar of those calamansi pearls!
Strawberry/Rosemary infused gin gimlet
I love the Bees Knees!
Smashed blackberries, fresh mint, lemon juice, agave nectar & blackberry whiskey !
My favorite Spring inspired cocktail will include fresh berries some champagne and a dash @torani syrup
Gin, cucumber, mint, serrano, lime
There are some REALLY fun things in that gift basket! Lately I’ve been a bit fan of margaritas, which I think is wishful thinking that someday it’ll be warm again.
Spring is a bit off yet, but when the weather warms, I usually reach for something that reminds me of spring. I like to reach for my homemade violet syrup to make a violet gin sour.
I love a good Dark and Stormy! The spiciness of a strong ginger beer echoes the bite of winter – and nothing says summer like a nice dark rum. Together? Spring!
I agree with the masses…anything with fresh mint! Thanks so much for the awesome giveaway!
I would say vodka lemonade with thyme
I like Cosmos year round.
Mint Julep!!! And a Pimms cup!
We’ve been waiting for spring in Maine so we can have rye whiskey lemonades while sitting outside!
Thanks for providing the lists of Vodka Recipe i really appreciate that you have mentioned each Recipes very well,i Like your blog and suggest other to follow. We also got list of Martini Recipe on http://www.martini365.com/ .
The Queen’s Park swizzle is one of my favorite ways to work mint into a drink!
I love balsamic vinegar in cocktails – had a great one with vodka, basil, strawberries puree and balsamic.
I typically drink stronger and boozier drinks in the colder months. It’s still cold here, but I’d love something with a riff off of cherry blossom, or perhaps something with a tea infusion. For a tried and true, anything with cucumber, especially a Pimm’s Cup, is always welcome.
Anything using fresh mint and berries sounds great to me!
