Ever since I shared my go-to summer cocktail on
A Diary of Lovely, it got me thinking about other refreshing and light cocktails that will linger into fall (
or maybe you will just fall in love with and drink all year!) ... so, as we go into one of the last weekends in August, I thought I would share a few of these easy and delicious recipes!
In a glass or shaker place 6 to 10 blackberries, and 1 teaspoon sugar, and meddle well until the juices from the blackberries combine with the sugar to make the mixture liquid, not dry. Add 1 ounce Bacardi Razz, a splash of club soda, 1/2 lime squeezed and crushed ice. Top it with a little mint, stir very well and strain of the ice.
Add 1 ounce Lillet Blanc, 1 ounce fresh orange juice, 1/2 ounce orange flavored soda water, and crushed ice. Stir well and garnish with an orange slice.
In a champagne glass, fill half the glass with champagne, add 1/2 ounce St.Germain, a splash of club soda and garnish with a few raspberries!
I hope you have the chance to enjoy one of these delights.. let me know if you do, and what your favorite is!
