I’m sharing what will undoubtedly become your new favorite summer cocktail – Sweet Tea Vodka Lemonade Mojitos!
Sweet Tea Vodka Lemonade Mojitos are incredibly refreshing — especially on a hot summer night. Sweetness from sweet tea vodka and tart lemonade mixed with muddled fresh lemon juice and fresh mint is crazy good. If you think you’ll miss the fizz of a traditional mojito, then by all means sub the lemonade for club soda, but do yourself a favor and try it with the lemonade too. Heck, summer’s short. Try ’em both!
In terms of cocktails, this one’s a cinch to source and make. You’ll need sweet tea flavored vodka, lemonade, fresh mint, and lemons. I love this drink with meyer lemons but they can be hard to come by. Regular lemons work just fine! First squeeze 1/2 lemon into a 16oz mason jar or tumbler then add 5-6 sprigs fresh mint.
Next use the bottom of a wooden spoon and muddle lemon half and mint.
Next, fill the jar up with ice then add 2oz (1/4 cup) sweet tea flavored vodka. Finally add 1/2 cup lemonade. Again, you could use club soda, or a mixture if you don’t like your cocktails too sweet.
Screw the lid on the jar then shake what your mama gave ya’. Tip: these drinks are AWESOME to make ahead of time. Simply muddle the mint and lemon/lemon juice, add the vodka and lemonade, and then screw on the top and pop in the fridge. When you’re ready to drink, add ice then shake!
Grab a straw and you’re set!
This is a drink I will be sipping all summer long. Hope you enjoy as much as I do!
