Citrus Cooler

This citrus cooler with vodka, triple sec and sweet and sour is a cool and refreshing drink for a hot summer night.

Citrus Cooler

Around these parts, we stick mostly to wine and beer for our cocktail hours, but every once in awhile I like to shake things up with something new, which can be a little dangerous. If “something new” means purchasing bottles of alcohol and mixers it can get a little expensive, so I better be confident about the end result otherwise those bottles end up becoming dust-collecting decorations that I try to pawn off on visitors and house guests.

So I tend to stick to what I like and in this case, what I like is lemon, vodka, and soda which is otherwise known as a citrus cooler.

It’s sort of a grown-up fizzy lemonade that’s perfect for sippin’ on a warm summer night while watching fireflies from the front porch. Or, in our case, hot sweltering nights that we don’t actually spend outside because it’s so much nicer inside with the air-conditioning.

Anyway, you know what I mean. This citrus cooler is a delicious summertime drink.
