00:02 Hi, I'm Amanda with my recipes.
00:07 Hello summer.
00:09 What I really meant to say was,
00:11 hello summer cocktails.
00:14 What better way to celebrate the season
00:16 than by giving a few toasts
00:17 to some delicious mouth-watering cocktails.
00:21 I have a feeling the following five cocktails
00:23 will get heavy rotation this summer season.
00:27 Watermelon mint margaritas.
00:30 Nothing says summer like the sweet,
00:32 refreshing bite of watermelon,
00:34 which is what makes this recipe such a treat.
00:37 Combined with fresh lime juice,
00:39 smooth tequila, and fresh mint leaves,
00:42 you have a frozen slice of summer
00:45 poured right in your glass.
00:48 Tequila mojitos.
00:50 You say tequila, I say mojitos.
00:53 This recipe answers our call
00:56 by combining a simple sugar concoction
00:58 with fresh mint, lemon-lime soft drink,
01:01 tequila, and fresh lime juice.
01:04 It's easy, can be made up to a week ahead,
01:06 and screams summer.
01:08 Honeydew mimosas.
01:11 When I'm feeling the need to celebrate,
01:13 I whip up some honeydew mimosas.
01:16 The succulent taste of honeydew melon
01:19 in combination with the bite from sparkling wine
01:22 work together beautifully.
01:24 Plus, aren't you really just looking for an excuse
01:26 to say honeydew over and over again this summer?
01:29 Shortcut sangria.
01:33 Simply combine vanilla-flavored syrup,
01:35 oranges, lime, orange juice, dry red wine, and voila.
01:40 Shortcut sangria is a reality.
01:44 It's got all the fresh, citrusy taste you love
01:47 without any weight.
01:48 Pim's Cup.
01:51 If I'm craving spice with a citrus twist,
01:54 then you know right where I'm going.
01:56 Straight to the Pim's Cup.
01:58 This recipe combines Pim's number one cup,
02:01 a gin-based liqueur, with the bright bite
02:04 from ginger ale and sparkling water.
02:07 A refreshing combo you will revisit every summer.
