Ah, summertime, when the world is ripe with pleasure. All living things take comfort in the season’s vitalizing sunlight and welcoming weather. The ability to leisurely pass the days and evenings outdoors gives new meaning to the word freedom. This is la dolce vita. And it’s hard to imagine that it could get any better.
But it can. One of summer’s most simple, perfect splendors is being able to indulge in the aforementioned comforts with a refreshing drink in hand. We’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite warm weather beverages for your pleasure. Enjoy.

Long Island iced tea

Long Island iced tea

A truly enjoyable mixture of tequila, vodka, white rum, triple sec, gin, and more; served on the rocks to ensure that it’s perfectly refreshing.

Developed by the bar manager of the Ritz-Carlton in Berlin, 23 is an uplifting combination of citrus juices and high-quality rum.

This cocktail is super easy to make—it’s basically just ginger beer vodka, and lime juice—which makes it perfect for summer nights spent in the company of close friends. Try substituting vodka with bourbon whiskey for a Kentucky mule.

Refreshing prosecco creation with red berries

Prosecco, frozen berries and a hint of vanilla. Need I say more?

Brazil’s national cocktail. Mix together some lime juice and cachaça (Brazilian sugar cane brandy) and you’ve got pure happiness in a glass.

Cold brew Irish coffee
