If you’re looking for a dose of summer in your winter, then look no further than the tropical Piña Croixlada (made with La Croix, get it?).
I decided to become a cocktail craftswoman this week and create a new sip. I’ll be honest, I sort of grabbed what I had around the house and mixed it together to see what would happen. Turns out, it was delish. Like, maybe the best drink I’ve created thus far!
Here’s what you’ll need to make 2 Piña Croixladas:
2 ounces vodka (I use Tito’s)
1 ounce Triple Sec
½ ounce Simple Syrup
12 ounces (1 can) Coconut La Croix (sparkling water)
2 tangerines
4 lime wedges
What to do:
Squeeze the juice of the tangerines directly into your serving glasses. Add vodka, triple sec, simple syrup and the juice of one lime wedge into each glass. Add six ounces of Coconut La Croix into each glass and mix together. Garnish with a lime wedge on each glass.
This super simple recipe tastes like a Pina Colada and a Spritz had a baby. It is refreshing after the first sip and practically transports you to a lounging-on-a-beach mentality. Give it a shot if you’re craving that warmth or relaxation for yourself!
Happy sipping!
