There is nothing better than sitting by the pool with your friends having a refreshing cocktail. But, when you want to have a full on pool party and take on the role of bartender, things become a little more stressful. But, no fear, there are plenty of ways to make sure you and your guests are happy with these easy cocktails.
Mint Julep
Normally reserved for the Kentucky Derby, this classic American drink should be enjoyed all summer long! All you need to do is to muddle mint leaves with some sugar and a little water, add a lot of ice and bourbon, and top with either water or sparkling water.
Daquiri
No other liquor takes you to a tropical place quite like rum. Making daquiris for your guests will just put them over the edge in the best way. All you need to do is make a simple syrup, add lime juice and white rum. Shake it all together or just pour into a large pitcher with ice and you’re done!
Lemonade and Vodka
This simple drink is refreshing and almost no trouble at all. Just mix together lemon juice, water, sugar, and vodka, and you have a homemade cocktail everyone will love.
