Summer is on its way which means sitting in the sun relaxing with a nice cold beverage! If you are feeling like something alcoholic I have put together some healthier cocktail recipes for you which follow on from my mini series on alcohol!
Past posts included the effects of alcohol, alcohol myths, tips for being alcohol savvy and some non-alcoholic alternatives.

[tps_title]6 Healthier Cocktail Recipes[/tps_title]
// Bloody Mary
Make your own Bloody Mary by adding ¾ cup of tomato juice (check to make sure it has no added sugar) and add the juice of ½ lemon, a dash each of hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce, fresh ground pepper to taste, and 30ml of vodka. If you want it to be authentic garnish with a lemon wedge and celery stick.
Love the Pina Colada using coconut milk! Genius!
Interestingly enough, except for the tequila sunrise, these are all drinks I really like but don’t drink too often – I love the idea of making then a little healthier with your recommendations – thanks!
So glad the tips were helpful Andi 🙂
These sound so easy and yummy! I’ll be giving these a try!
So glad you like them 🙂 Thanks for stopping by Shelby!

I am not a cocktailer – but there look divine.

Yum! I love blended drinks, that Pina Colada looks good 🙂
Thanks Jena, Pina Colada’s are my favourite! 🙂
I love Pina Coladas I can’t have alcohol so they have to be virgin.
Virgin ones are still pretty tasty too!
