What makes a smash, a smash? I like to think of a smash-style cocktail as the less fussy, more forgiving variation of a julep. It’s pretty open-ended and variable, as long as you include herbs, fruit, sugar, and some sort of base spirit.

Coming at ya with another single malt scotch summer sip (say that five times fast)! But in all seriousness, this is your reminder that you don’t need to sip scotch on the rocks and it can be enjoyed in bright, citrusy, herbaceous summer cocktails.

I’ll be real with y’all—this is the first time I’ve ever made limoncello! I know there are several methods and ways to make it, but I am pretty thrilled with how this turned out! It’s perfectly sweet, not bitter at all, and it definitely doesn’t have that unfortunate lemon cleaning product flavor.

The Banana Daiquiri is a classic staple in cocktail culture. It’s best known in its appearance in The Godfather Part II, when Fredo foolishly asked Michael how to translate “Banana Daiquiri” in Spanish. Michael’s quickly faded smile indicates how fed up he is with his childish older brother — his idiocracy on full display.

I love experimenting with different variations of margaritas, because the possibilities are so endless! For this spicy strawberry riff, I used orgeat (instead of a traditional agave) syrup, which gave it this incredible creaminess and nuttiness.

This blue coconut mai tai is a little far from the authentic original, but I can’t pass up an opportunity to use blue curaçao in a tasteful way 😉 the color is seriously next level, and the fact that it tastes better than it looks is a bonus!

If there’s one cocktail you should have under your belt, it’s the frozen margarita! Whenever I make frozen margaritas in a pitcher if I’m hosting guests, I just multiply a single recipe by however many margs I’m making.

This drink is smokey from the mezcal, but balanced out beautifully by the natural sweetness in the bell pepper. You get a little tang from the red wine syrup and then a BANG from the spicy bitters. I’ll be drinking this all summer long — I’m obsessed!

It’s no secret that mango margaritas are a fan favorite, so let’s make one that’s frozen and spicy (which I will be drinking all summer) — this is your sign not to skip out on the good tequila. This makes 2 large drinks or 4 smaller drinks.

I bought too much basil so be prepared for lots of basil content! But in all seriousness, we all know how much I love Negronis, so this warm-weather, strawberry basil riff on the all time classic is so appropriate for the 60° weather.

I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for summer and warm weather vibes! We’re going back to basics with a classic Mai Tai. There seems to be a little bit of controversy as to where the Mai Tai originated — Victor J. Bergeron claimed to have invented the Mai Tai in 1944 at his restaurant, Trader Vic's, but Trader Vic’s forerunner Donn Beach claimed to have created it back in the 30s. It wasn’t until the late 1950s that it became extremely popular in Hawaii as the “top tourist tantalizer.”
