It’s hot out there, folks. Water’s great, and we’re loving seltzer, but sometimes those just won’t do. To enjoy your summer days in true style, try one of these fan-favorite refreshing cocktails, featuring Dangold spice blends!

Classic Bloody Mary
We’re starting off simple, because summer isn’t complete without a few afternoon Bloody Mary’s! Begin with a recipe of vodka, tomato juice, horseradish, Tabasco, and Worcestershire, then leave the rest to Dangold’s Bloody Mary for All spice blend. This blend works its magic by elevating your favorite flavors and adding a kick of its own!

Watermelon Margarita
There are so many delicious twists on margaritas, but the most refreshing has gotta be watermelon with a lil’ fire. It’s super easy to get this one right: just combine your favorite tequila and lime juice with blended watermelon, then mix in some Chili Lime spice for extra pizazz. 

Caramel Piña Colada
If you’re craving a sweet treat, look no further. A classic piña colada starts with both white and dark rum, pineapple juice, and coconut milk. An even better piña colada is topped with whipped coconut cream and Salted Caramel spice for extra vacation indulgence. You deserve it!

Apple Martini
This drink, also known as an “appletini,” is refreshing to its ~apple~ core. Make a classic vodka martini, then add in a bit of apple or lime juice, a verrrryy thin apple slice as garnish, and a *dash* of Apple Pie spice to bring it on home. Yum! 

Smoky Paloma
This cocktail typically features tequila, but for a more adult version, use mezcal. Combine with lime juice and grapefruit soda, then salt the rim with Himalayan Pink Salt. To finish with flair, add a smoked twig of rosemary for garnish. This fire-fresh cocktail is a real end-of-summer treat.
