5 Easy, Must-Have Summer Cocktails
I don’t know about you, but summertime for me means sun, sand, beach, bikinis, flip-flops and cocktails! We’re not certain what this summer has in store for us since we are still in the middle of a pandemic. This doesn’t mean we can’t mimic our usual vacation activities and fully enjoy a staycation. All you need is a blow up pool, your swimsuit, a blender and some key ingredients!
I don’t know about you, but summertime for me means sun, sand, beach, bikinis, flip-flops and cocktails! We’re not certain what this summer has in store for us since we are still in the middle of a pandemic. Some of the beaches are closed, outdoor activities have been canceled and the borders are still closed in some of our favorite vacation spots. This doesn’t mean we can’t mimic our usual vacation activities and fully enjoy a staycation. All you need is a blow up pool, your swimsuit, a blender and some key ingredients!
For the past several weeks I’ve been sharing my cocktails on IG stories with my followers. Surprisingly, the cocktails have been garnering lots of conversation and questions. Some individuals have even requested a recipe book! I don’t know that I’m adept at creating an entire recipe book of cocktails (not a food blogger by any stretch of the imagination) but I have created a magazine-like guide called “mixed.” to share my top 5 must-have cocktails for the summer. I make these all the time and they are super easy!
I think you will really enjoy these simple and easy recipes. You can print it and place it in your kitchen where it’s easily accessible.

We live in a time where the world feels heavy. The headlines are exhausting, the pace of change is relentless, and conversations in our communities remind us daily of job loss, burnout, and uncertainty. With so much happening around us and inside of us, it’s no surprise that many of us find ourselves longing for a break.
But here’s the real question: do you need a vacation or a reset?
It’s tempting to use these words interchangeably, but they serve very different purposes. Knowing which one you actually need can make the difference between coming back just as drained as before, or truly feeling restored.
Sometimes, a weekend like this does more for your spirit than a five-day getaway ever could.
In seasons like the one we’re all in, where the world feels like it’s burning and the noise never stops, it’s essential to know what kind of restoration you need. Vacations are wonderful, but resets may be the overlooked key to longevity, peace, and clarity.
The next time you feel drained, ask yourself: Am I longing for a break, or am I craving a recalibration?
Your answer might just change everything.
