Favorite new summer cocktail...

The summer is such an amazing time! The weather is warm (or extremely HOT). We love to travel and have been doing a lot of it this summer. We have been spending time at the shore, in the Hamptons, Newport, Block Island, CT...the list goes on. Everyone's mood just seems different. Happiness...relaxation...fun.

I came across a favorite summer cocktail I have been enjoying and experimenting with. I learned of it from a restaurent in New York City, Rosa Mexicana. Not only is the recipe fantastic, the ingredients are so spectacular they have so many wonderful uses! Here is my rendition:

2 oz. Crop Harvest Organic Cucumber Vodka
4 oz. Fresh Pineapple juice
3 oz. Bonterra Organic Viognier (White Wine)
English Cucumber
Fresh Mint
Apple sliced
Optional :Simple Syrup (or ginger infused simple syrup)

Serves 3 and is appoximately 105 calories per serving
