Thanks to grocery stores that sell local produce instead of imported, I was able to score a carton of the best strawberries of my life. Ripe strawberries taste like candy and could stop even the most stubborn sweet tooth dead in its tracks. Man these were good!
Naturally I had to corrupt them with vodka. I mean, I did go to FSU after all.
one can of sparkling lime La Croix water [or lemon-lime soda]
1-2 shots of strawberry vodka, chilled
as many slices of fresh strawberry and lime as you can fit in the glass!
slosh. stir. and serve over ice.
Though maybe the sloshing comes last ;)
Happy almost-friday!
Still thirsty? Whip up a Pink Panty Dropper or a deelish Green Leprechaun Smoothie!
Ooh that looks nice and refreshing! Yum!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this!
ReplyDeleteYay, I can comment!
ReplyDeleteI love strawberries and lime. There's a pick your own strawberry farm here in town. A friend and I found it when we were lost, we rolled down the window to ask for directions, and the most yummlicious smell hit us like a happy, happy brick wall.
AHHH YAY! My comment form has been more bipolar than the weather lately! I would SO go pick strawberries with you! OMG we used to all the time when we lived in Pensacola! =)

ReplyDeleteDelicious idea! I just bought some lemon-lime soda sweetened with stevia that I have been wanting to try out! I bought it with wine spritzers in mind but I love the strawberry vodka with strawberries idea. Thanks Jenn!
ReplyDeleteOh girl it'll be goooood! Go grab some strawberries! =) xoxo
ReplyDeleteVirgin for me! Would be yummy with some club soda though :)
ReplyDeletethe lime la croix is fizzy so you wouldn't even need to buy club soda =) Perrier makes a really yummy natural one too without weird additives or fake sugars [the la croix is natural too!]
ReplyDeletethis sounds so awesome!!!!! i must have one!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh how I love LaCroix - wonderful drink! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, this sounds so refreshing!! Perfect for these warmer days!
ReplyDeleteI missed this yesterday!! But maybe for the better since now I can enjoy it this weekend. Strawberries are my favorite. Duh.
ReplyDeleteYum! Summer's on its way and this would be perfect by the pool!
ReplyDeleteSo refreshing, yet sweet! That's my kind of drink, Girl! :)

This looks amazing! This may be my favorite Spring drink.
ReplyDeleteThanks love!! Happy Friday!!!!
ReplyDeleteI can't really say that I have a favorite spring beverage.....I usually stick with wine or beer. I do love a good peach bellini every so often :) I am not a real "sweet drink" type of person, I think this one would be perfect!!
ReplyDeleteOh and virgin only if I have to, like when I was pregnant :)
I'm the same way! Though sub a screwdriver for the peach bellini and we're good to go =) This drink is more tart and fizzy with the only sweetness coming from the berries you toss in the glass so hopefully you'd love it too! xoxo Happy Friday Helen!
ReplyDeleteThat looks so delicious and refreshing...yum! Can't wait to try one!
