Berry Summery drink


Once the weather heats up, I love enjoying a tall glass of ice water. But some days, an ice cold fruity mixed drink sounds even better!

Here's what I came up with tonight using a bottle of Target's Archer Farms Strawberry Pomegranate Italian Soda. I love making drinks at home because I can add as much or as little alcohol as I want, and I never have to worry about getting bored of a drink since I'm always making something different. I hope you give this a try, here's what you'll need:

Ice
Strawberry pomegranate Italian soda
splash of triple sec
1-3 oz lemon vodka
Blueberries
slice of lemon
Ginger ale or clear soda (optional)

Fill a small glass with ice and top with as many blueberries as you like.
Fill the glass with italian soda, leaving the top 2 inches of the glass empty.
Add a splash of triple sec and about 1/2 inch of vodka.
Squeeze a little lemon in and top off with ginger ale or some clear soda if you'd like.
Enjoy!
