| going to the beach for a week and would like to mix up up a drink for hubby and I to enjoy in the evenings. Nothing too complicated or overly sweet, but looking for something summery and a step up from gin and tonics. |

| Drinks with mint are a great summertime choice. A whiskey smash is a great choice! Not too sweet, refreshing, and you won't believe it's burbon. Here's the recipe - http://www.themoveablechef.com/whiskey-smash-recipe/ |

What do you do with the cucumber? Muddle it? Blend it then strain it? I love cucumber martinis in bars, but I've always been too lazy to make one myself. |
