Strawberry Tropical Cocktail

April 14, 2015

Strawberry Tropical Cocktail

:: Strawberry Tropical Cocktail ::

It was a big birthday week for my family last week during our spring break.  To celebrate I made a few of these Strawberry Tropical Cocktails.  The taste of this tropical drink will take you back to your last vacation, or make you think of taking one real soon.

This Strawberry Tropical Cocktail is definitely on the skinny side so you can enjoy one or two.  Sip them over appetizers in the late afternoon, or share them with a couple of girl friends and count down the days until schools out for summer!

Refreshing and light this Strawberry Tropical Cocktail reminds us of summer.

What makes this drink feel like it should have a tiny umbrella in it is the mixture of coconut vodka with the muddled strawberries and pineapple. I have made this Strawberry Tropical Cocktail by either simply muddling the strawberries and pineapple with Stevia at the bottom of a cocktail glass or I have placed the strawberries and pineapple with Stevia in the blender.  Either pureed or with fruit on the bottom, this recipe is easy to make and it will transport you to a quiet moment beach side with a cocktail in hand.  Cheers to celebrating birthdays, counting down until schools out, and to enjoying these cocktails on a sunny day.
