BOURBON PEACH SMASH
The Bourbon Peach Smash is perfect for the remaining summer days. Made with fresh peaches and bourbon, it is light and refreshing, yet still packs a punch.
Freshen up your traditional mojito with a little Aperol and coconut liqueur. It's juicy and refreshing. The cocktail will transport you to the poolside wherever you are.
I love a classic cocktail. This one in particular is bright and fresh. The creme de violette enhances the herbiness in the gin. Leaving you with an easy sipper.
If a Manhattan is your drink of choice, you may want to try this New Orleans' classic cocktail. Same core ingredients, with the addition of Benedictine, Absinthe and Peychauds bitters.
A sweet but light cocktail that is a perfect pairing with small bites. It tastes just like a creamsicle. If you are looking for a transition cocktail into summer, this will please the palette.
When you want a spritz, but without champagne or loss flavor, give my Betty Spritz a try. It has everything a classic Aperol Spritz has but I swap Champagne for Lemon Lime Betty Buzz.
If you don't like a Negroni cocktail and you like Bourbon, this cocktail is for you. It's smooth and sweet with a slightly bitter bite at the end. This is a spirit forward cocktail, but you would never know.
The perfect way to end the night is with the classic Revolver cocktail. A combination of Bourbon, coffee liqueur and an orange undertone. Great sipping cocktail to warm the night.
The Old Fashioned is a timeless classic. There are many versions of this cocktail but this one is based on the original. You only need three ingredients. It allows the Bourbon or Whiskey to shine.
Great drink to end the summer with. Changing up the classic Tom Collins with whiskey and a dash of bitters. Full on flavor but still refreshing for the last few hot days of summer

Here is your new obsession. Putting a twist on a classic gimlet with this vodka based cocktail, adding grapefruit juice to traditional lime and simple syrup flavors.
Sour cocktails are favorites of mine. Have you ever tried it with Rum? Depending on the rum you use, it will create a slightly sweeter note compared to a whiskey sour, while still delivering classic sour taste.
If you're a fan of a long island iced tea or coca cola, this cocktail would be right up your alley. The rum flavor mixes well with the ginger beer and lime. Must use Goslings Black Seal Rum for a proper one.
Sometimes a simple and refreshing cocktail is all that is needed. If you have basil growing, step outside to your garden and whip up a batch of these upgraded G&Ts.

Switch out your mimosas for this two ingredient cocktail that will impress. Bubbly with a sweet blackberry flavor. Great for brunch or special gatherings.
The Espresso Martini is rich in flavor. Use your favorite espresso. It will be enhanced by coffee liqueur and you will forget that it's a vodka based cocktail.
This bubbly cocktail is great when you want something a little more than a glass of champagne. Traditional French 75's are made with gin, but this recipe is cognac.
The Scofflaw is a cocktail many don't know about, but is a favorite of mine. It's citrusy, sour and slightly sweet. This bourbon Parisian cocktail is a must try.
Surprisingly, this cocktail is very light. You would hardly guess this is a Bourbon cocktail. Think spritzy, with a splash of fresh lemon and coolness of mint.
If you are looking for another coffee cocktail other than the classic Espresso Martini, this is for you. Tasting like a vanilla iced coffee, this tequila cocktail will put a pep in your step and have you wanting more.
A classic that is multi-dimensional in flavor. Whiskey is the star but is complimented by the slight sweetness of vermouth and other add ins. Making it a smooth taste.
