Easy Summer Cocktail Ideas

People get afraid that they need a whole cocktail set to mix and get a modeler and get certain ingredients. No, I just took this out of the kitchen, took this out of my store, took this out of the fridge, and here we go. Let me teach you how to make a couple of few different cocktails. [Music] So the focus is over here to crush the cucumber. Believe it or not, after all these liquor s that we have, I don't even have a modeler at home. Module it up. You don't need the class, the 1942. You need simple blanco. It shouldn't cost you more than a couple of seltzers and then a handful of ice. Mix it up. So far so good, right? A little bit of salsa water. So, you could use regular salsa, but I like a little bit of lime to give it a little flavor. But then we use a little extra lime, too. Just squeeze it in there. Don't be afraid. And if you want to make it a little more fancy, like you know what you're doing, mint never hurts. Just throw in a few mints. A little mix. You'll smell summer. You can imagine you're on the beach sitting by the beautiful lake. It's mid July or mid June, whatever, whenever. We got tequila. I don't even have a name for this. I didn't even use any measurements, so you add as you want. For me, it's 3:00 in the afternoon. Little bit more doesn't hurt. Okay, next. Let's throw in a couple of oranges, some pomegranate. Muddle it up. You could probably do it better than me and clumsy ice. Tequila blanco. You have enough flavor in the cup. You can add some sparkling tuscanini lemonade. It's from Sicily. It's fire. You can drink it on your own, but me on my own. Goes together with tequila. A little mix. Voila. It's really refreshing. And now, no, we're not drinking any wine. Grab a wine glass. We're going to put in some ice. Swirl it so it gets nice and chilled. Add a little of the blanco. Maybe a little bit more. And then let's go for it. Tuscanini. Beautiful blood orange. I'm excited. It's beautiful. It's exciting. So, I would say the first one is drier. It's simpler. It's cleaner when you're drinking on your own or you want to serve it like to to people that are not looking for something sweet. The second one is like colors. You want to impress a little bit. The third one, you can just pound it by the pool like there is no tomorrow. [Music]
