Feelin' Fine Cocktail Time Friday...A's Strawberry Splash

6/22/2018

2 Comments

 
As I write this post, it is officially 5 years, almost to the minute, that I married the greatest guy in the whole world. That day was truly one of the most fun days of my entire life, and in addition to being filled with love from family and friends, it was also filled with awesome cocktails and food (hey, the name "The Boastful Host" had to come from somewhere!). So I figured, why not share one of our signature drinks from that night with all of you!

Much of our wedding had components that focused on the water - taking the plunge (we first met at a polar bear plunge), we live at the beach, and you'll see by our photo later the reception ended with a big splash! It was most fitting that we chose the name "A's Strawberry Splash" for this drink.

You can get out some of your pent up aggressions, because you have some muddling to do for this drink. Other than that though, it's pretty simple, and more importantly, super tasty!
Picture
Ingredients (serves 4 modest size drinks or 2 giant ones as shown here):
4 shots of vodka
Juice from 1/2 orange
Juice from 1/2 lemon
4 big juicy strawberries
Small handful of mint and basil leaves
Simple syrup to taste (my strawberries were not as sweet as they could be)
Club soda (optional)

Directions:
In a large cocktail shaker, place the strawberries, herbs, and 1/2 of the vodka, and then muddle to get all of the flavors released and delicious. Fill the shaker with ice, the remainder of the vodka, and the orange and lemon juice, and then shake until it is icy cold. Take a tiny taste to see if you need to add any simple syrup. Fill two glasses with ice (highball would be the proper glass of choice, but like me, use whatever glass makes you happy), and pour. I added a little club soda on top for some bubbles, but that's totally optional.

Be forewarned, this drink is yummy and does not taste like alcohol. After a few of these and being on the natural high of your wedding day, you too could find yourself swimming, fully dressed, in the middle of the night!

We hope you all love this drink as much as we did. Happy Friday!
