Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup pink lemonade
- 1/2 cup vodka
- 1/4 cup club soda
- Fresh strawberries for garnish
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of pink lemonade, 1/2 cup of vodka, 1/4 cup of club soda, fresh strawberries for garnish, and ice cubes.
- In a large mixing glass or cocktail shaker, combine the pink lemonade and vodka. Stir gently to mix the two liquids thoroughly.
- Add the club soda to the mixture. This will give your drink a refreshing fizz. Stir gently again to combine, being careful not to lose too much carbonation.
- Prepare two serving glasses by filling each with ice cubes. You can use crushed ice or regular ice cubes based on your preference.
- Pour the spiked pink lemonade mixture evenly into the prepared glasses over the ice cubes.
- For garnish, slice fresh strawberries and place them on the rim of each glass. You can also drop a few slices into the drink for added flavor and decoration.
- Optionally, you can add a straw to each glass for easy sipping. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Spiked Pink Lemonade Barbie Drink!
Tips
- Chill Your Ingredients: For an extra refreshing drink, chill your pink lemonade and vodka in the refrigerator before mixing. This will keep your cocktail cold longer without diluting it too much.
- Experiment with Garnishes: While fresh strawberries are a delightful garnish, feel free to get creative! Add slices of lemon, lime, or even a sprig of mint for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Adjust the Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter drink, consider using a pink lemonade concentrate or adding a splash of simple syrup. Conversely, if you like it tangy, opt for freshly squeezed lemon juice.
- Make a Pitcher: Planning a party? Scale up the recipe by mixing a larger batch in a pitcher. Just maintain the same proportions, and serve over ice in individual glasses for a fun and festive presentation.
- Non-Alcoholic Version: For a family-friendly option, simply omit the vodka and add more club soda or sparkling water for a bubbly, non-alcoholic pink lemonade that everyone can enjoy.
- Serve with Style: Use fun straws or colorful cocktail umbrellas to add a playful touch to your presentation. It's all about the experience!
