hands down, G&T. the classic is best but also love zhushing it up for summer with elderflower liquor, different tonics (grapefruit and cucumber are good), cucumber and herb garnishes etc
my other refreshing summer cocktails, all easy to batch for a crowd, are margaritas, mojitos, sangria and aperol apritzes |

Mojitos— I grow my own mint and will usually add fresh summery fruit like blueberries, strawberries, or watermelon.
I also like hibiscus iced tea in the summer and will sometimes make a cocktail by adding vodka, seltzer, and lime (or just a lime flavored seltzer!). |

I also make mojitos, without juice or simple syrup. The sweetness comes from fresh fruit, or if making original lime/mint, using a citrus rum.
- seltzer - mint - fresh lime juice - limon rum |
