Bring the tropics to your home.
Summer is finally here, and we are savoring all the warm days outside. We all looked forward to this long-awaited season with tropical dreams of traveling somewhere with ocean landscapes, toes in the sand, and of course those tropical cocktails. It’s one of the best parts of a vacation. If you are lucky enough to do this summer, amazing! If not, this ocean-inspired cocktail will bring the tropics to your home. This only has a few ingredients, cause who wants to spend less than 5 minutes making a drink on your “vacation”?

Step 1: Gather Ingredients
You can pick your method of mixing- either cocktail shaker or swiveling. I tend to like the cocktail shaker where as my husband loves the brisk swivel way. Up to you. Add ice to your shaker, following with all the ingredietns.
Beijos Tip: If you are planning on serving your drinks and hanging outside, use a insulated cocktail shaker that will keep your drinks cold!
Step 2: Shake or Swivel Away
Shake or swivel away!
Step 3: Pour and Garnish
Fill your glassware with some ice, I like to use a big square ice cube for this cocktail. Place one in the bottom of the glass. Then fill up your cup. Garnish with a fun umbrella stick or you can even garnish with some seashells.
Serving up at a party?
Style the drinks up with some graham cracker crumbs for the sand and seashells for a fun ocean detail.
