DIY DRINKS | 4th of July Cocktails

Somehow June seemed to fly by! But the good news is that it is almost July 4th, one of my favorite holidays, because it’s in summer, and you get to hang out with friends, BBQ and watch fireworks…perfect. I was excited when SMIRNOFF® asked me to play mixologist with some of their flavored vodkas for the holiday. Now I can wow everyone with festive fruit & beverages for the fourth! Pairing each vodka with it’s fruit made for some deliciously flavored drinks (I had a great time taste testing them!) to make the 4th celebration even more awesome. Hope you enjoy!
