6 Easy Cocktails to Make This Weekend––Plus, 3 Canned Drinks If You’re Short on Time

With or without the vodka, this sweet-tart drink deserves a spot at brunch (or any time of day, really).

This drink, from Rebekah Peppler’s Apéritif: How to Cocktail the French Way, uses the bittersweet French liqueur Suze, but you can substitute Campari or high quality sweet vermouth.

A riff on the classic margarita, but this time livened up with pomegranate juice.

If you like Negronis (that’s all of us, right?) you’ll love this Italian-ish cocktail. Sweet Aperol balances the tart and sharp lemon juice and gin.

Our spirit-free version of this traditional vodka drink focuses on the citrus-forward notes of Seedlip Grove 42. Fresh spring mint helps brighten the cocktail and adds depth.

This chamomile cocktail is a little more involved, but the end results are worth it.

Paloma in a can. This sparking grapefruit tequila drink is perfect for a beachside sunset, or any sunset for that matter.

This light sparkling organic Sicilian wine is made with Zibibbo grapes and mixed with organic blood orange juice. You can feel really good about guzzling one or two of these refreshing drinks thanks to the highest quality organic ingredients, sustainable production methods, and no refined sugar or gluten.

Son of Man Sagardo is made once a year with Oregon grown cider apples, so it feel truly special to crack open a can. This bright, fizzy drink is ultra-refreshing and is a nice change of pace from traditional sugary, summer drinks.
