Top 7 Summer Gin co*cktails
1
Cucumber Gin Fizz co*cktail Recipe
A gin fizz with an extra refreshing cucumber flavor. I know cucumber co*cktails might not be the first ones that come to your mind when you think about summer co*cktails. It wasn't for me either but this cucumber gin fizz is sure to change your mind.
2
Gin Rickey co*cktail Recipe
Gin rickey is one of the most classic gin drinks, but it works great in the summer. It is a long refreshing drink, so you can enjoy it at the beach or on the poolside, but it also can work in the summer evening when you want to enjoy a long drink that is not too strong.
3
Gimlet co*cktail Recipe - A Delicious Gin Sour
Gimlet is a great gin co*cktail that will work great during the summer as a sipper. I would not recommend this at the beach or poolside since it is a small but strong co*cktail, so to keep you cool, you will have to drink a few of those, which is not a great idea when you are outside.
However, when the evening comes the weather is nice and warm but not very hot and you go to a restaurant, gin gimlet might be the best choice to make your summer night that much better.
4
Strawberry Lime Rickey co*cktail Recipe
A fruity version of the Gin Rickey. Strawberry lime rickey is one of the best summer gin co*cktails, especially if you are like me, and fruity co*cktails are your favorite ones.
This co*cktail will make your summer days much better, and if you don't drink too much, you will only get a nice buzz since it is not that strong.
5
Strawberry Gin Smash co*cktail Recipe
A smashing combination of strawberry and gin, akin to a Mojito which is one of most people's go-to co*cktails during the summer, but have you thought about swapping the rum with gin and making a wonderful Strawberry Gin Smash?
Lime, sugar, mint, strawberry, club soda and gin, I can't think of a better combination for a great summer co*cktail.
6
The classic Gin Daisy, and its modern sister. Both versions of gin daisy work great in the summer. If you like fruitier co*cktails you might like the new version more than the old one but the old one is pretty good as well.
7
Clover Club co*cktail Recipe
A foamy, delicious gin and raspberry co*cktail. The clover club, like the gin gimlet, is not something you would drink at the beach or poolside but rather at a fancy summer dinner. This co*cktail just looks eatable, isn't it?
Conclusion
I hope this list was what you were looking for when you thought about the best summer gin co*cktails.
