Cocktails, Spring Cocktail Series 2013

Grapefruit Margarita

0 Comments 23 May 2013

The second cocktail installment in our Spring Cocktail Series is this ruby red stunner. I’m all about margaritas – always on the rocks, no salt – but rarely deviate from the traditional. This grapefruit margarita adds a fun twist to the mix, without compromising the components of a traditional margarita that I love so much. The perfect balance of sweet and tart, it’s a refreshing  drink for the warmer weather months, and one you’re sure to make time and again.

Cucumber Rosemary Gin and Tonic

A couple of weeks ago, we spent a leisurely Friday morning mixing up some craft cocktails for our Spring 2013 Cocktail Series. First up, this Cucumber Rosemary Gin and Tonic is a great way to kick things off.

Generally when the days get long and the temperatures spike, a gin and tonic is my go-to cocktail. It’s simple, refreshing, and reliable – all qualities I appreciate in a cocktail. With a squeeze of lime, it’s hard to beat – unless you start to dress it up with herbs and other subtle flavors.
