Summer Smasher 💥

2024/7/19 Edited to

... Read moreOkay, so I absolutely have to spill the tea on my new favorite summer concoction: the ultimate Summer Smasher cocktail! You know those days when you just need something perfectly refreshing, a little bit fruity, and, let's be honest, something that's giving drunk vibes in the best way possible? This is *it*. I stumbled upon the idea of a smasher drink, and after a little experimenting, I’ve perfected a recipe that’s ridiculously easy to make and tastes like pure sunshine in a glass. For me, the magic of a good smasher cocktail is in its simplicity and the fresh ingredients. You don't need a fancy bar setup, just some fresh fruit, your favorite spirit, and a little bit of muddling action. I love how adaptable it is, too – you can really make it your own. My go-to version starts with a handful of ripe strawberries and a few slices of fresh lemon. You just toss them into a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker and get to muddling. This is where you release all those amazing juices and essential oils from the fruit and citrus. The aroma alone is enough to get you excited! Once everything is nicely muddled, I add about 2 oz of a good quality vodka. You could absolutely use gin or even white rum if that's more your style, but vodka keeps it clean and really lets the fruit shine. Then, a splash of simple syrup – maybe 0.5 to 0.75 oz, depending on how sweet your fruit is and your personal preference. I often make my own simple syrup by dissolving equal parts sugar and hot water, letting it cool, and keeping it in the fridge. It's super handy for all sorts of summer drinks. Next comes the ice! Load up your glass or shaker with plenty of ice. If you're using a shaker, give it a good, vigorous shake for about 15-20 seconds until it's super chilled. If you're building it directly in the glass, just stir well to combine everything. Finally, top it off with some sparkling water or club soda for that delightful fizz. Sometimes, if I'm feeling extra fancy (or like I really need those drunk vibes), I'll use a dry prosecco or sparkling wine instead of soda water for an extra celebratory feel. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig and another lemon slice, and you're good to go! What I love most about this smasher drink is how it instantly transports me to a vacation mindset. It’s perfect for a backyard BBQ, a chill evening on the patio, or just unwinding after a long day. It’s light, vibrant, and incredibly refreshing. Plus, seeing all those beautiful fruit pieces and the pretty mint makes it feel so special. I’ve even made non-alcoholic versions by skipping the alcohol and adding more fruit and a splash of fruit juice before topping with sparkling water – equally delicious for those who want all the flavor without the buzz. Seriously, would you try this combo? Let me know your favorite fruit to use in a smasher!

Favorite sweet Treat?
Oh how I love when sonic offers their half priced shakes. Not only are they delicious but they are usually expensive for a drink in my opinion. However, with it being half off that’s a steal. I love both the strawberry one and the hot fudge one. Which is your favorite? #letschat #onlinedeals #
