On a hot summer day, there is nothing more refreshing then a lemon beer or fruity cocktail. You don’t have to be on vacation to kick back and relax with an ice cold beverage and fire up the grill. You will especially love these six drinks worth a try if they aren’t already on your favorites list.
1. New Amstel Radler, made with lemon juice and other natural ingredients.
2. Watermelon Spritzers, like I made for July 4th in the past.
3. Mariposa & White Wine Sangria Recipe.
4. Blueberry beer with fresh blueberries from places like Beer Works.
5. Strawberry Mojito via Fine Cooking.
6. I have to support my local brewery and mention Sam Summer too.
What is your favorite summer drink?

Here are my favorites
Tom Collins
Gin and Tonic
Pimms Cup
To me, summer drinks should be simple but have some subtle bite, kind of like how I like my men

Alyson, I also love Pimms Cups… And like you, no problem with a man who’s a little rough
Fran F. says
If I’m not counting calories, a frothy piña colada is mighty yummy on a hit summer day
They sneak up on you in both calories and getting the job done… I luv luv luv piña coladas
And I also like a Pimms cup when I want to feel sophisticated at a bar
“I’ll have a Pimms cup” makes me feel like I’m at Wimbledon!!!!!
Michelle says
