Festive Frozen Berry Lemonade

Every year I look forward to summer so I can create a signature lemonade cocktail to enjoy with my friends all season long. The past two summers I have been obsessed with creating festive concoctions with Smirnoff Red, White, and Berry Vodka which has tasting notes of cherry, blue raspberry, and citrus. This flavor combo works perfectly for boozy lemonades so this year I decided to take a cue from the hot weather and make frozen berry lemonade. For summer entertaining, this recipe is perfect for batching and serving in a cute pitcher to enjoy those long summer afternoons.

I also took it up a notch and used strawberry syrup for layering in the bottom of the glasses, creating a festive touch for any fourth of July celebration. All you need to create your summertime celebration is lemonade, Smirnoff Red, White, and Berry, fresh berries, and strawberry simple syrup plus a blender. Cheers to summer being frozen and festive all season long!
