We all know Texas summers are hot, so we’ve made a list of 3 Texas summer cocktails to cool you down while you’re entertaining outdoors.

Once you have your outdoor living setup, it’s time to learn some drink recipes to share with friends and family. There’s nothing better than enjoying a summer cocktail outside with your loved ones. A cocktail can set the atmosphere for the rest of your night, so we’re talking about three different options. Regardless of whichever one you try, it’ll quench your thirst and your guests may be asking for more.

 

Margarita

When it comes to Texas summer cocktails, you can’t beat a classic margarita. It’s the perfect San Antonio drink to enjoy outside before a meal. You’ll need tequila, orange liqueur, fresh lime juice and salt for the rim of your glass. This recipe from NYT Cooking is actually a family recipe from an old San Antonio restaurant! Multiply this recipe and make a pitcher for your group!

White Sangria

For those who enjoy wine, sangria is easy, delicious and technically has fruit in it so it’s healthy…right? You’ll need wine, seasonal fruit, apple liquor (like Calvados) and sparkling soda water. The last ingredient is key to transforming your drink into something refreshing on a hot summer night. This recipe from Rachael Ray is simple. Make it the day before your dinner so that the flavors can marinate with each other.

Strawberry-Basil Bourbon Lemonade

According to Country Living, it’ll taste like summertime in a glass. If you are a bourbon drinker and you’re looking for something summery, this is for you. You’ll need strawberries, bourbon, fresh lemon juice, bitters, and basil. This recipe will require making strawberry simple syrup, but it’s something that you can make ahead of time.

 

Inviting people over is a fun way to practice your cocktail making skills. Pair it with the right outdoor furniture and your home might become the new favorite place to get cocktails.
