Strawberry Caipirinha

This cocktail is so refreshing, sweet, and the perfect drink for a spring weekend. A twist on a traditional Brazilian cocktail, normally made with Cachaça. Here is have substituted with Vodka. I can't tell the difference, but don't tell my husband!!

Serve this mix at your next barbecue and your guest will not be disappointed or even alone sitting by the pool, you can't go wrong either way! Plus it's SO simple.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 shot Smirnoff ( 1.5-2 oz)

• 3-4 strawberries

• 1 tablespoon sugar

• splash of sprite

DIRECTIONS:

1. In cocktail shaker or regular glass add strawberries and sugar. Muddle the two together until they become slushy like. (I like to leave a few bigger chunks)

2. Add the Smirnoff and shake until well combined. If using regular glass to mix, whisk really well with spoon.

3. Add ice to drinking glass and poor over. Add your splash of sprite and some lime if you like and enjoy!
