Poolside Cucumber Mint Vodka Limeade

We’ve reached that point of the summer where it is just. too. hot. to do anything except be in the pool. Only thing better? Sipping on a fresh and easy cocktail while you do it.

I teamed up with Franklin Distillery , an amazing local liquor distillery, to create this cucumber mint vodka limeade which is the perfect blend of refreshing, tart, and boozy- plus the cucumbers make it healthy- right?

You can make these individually, or whip up a pitcher and pass it around. It won’t last long!

Cheers!
