Raspberry Daiquiri: This amazingly refreshing cocktail has the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. Can you believe there are only 4 ingredients?!

It’s summertime and the living is easyyyy. I’ve been seeing this quote everywhere from the local tv news to of course Facebook.

Since this is a self proclaimed no judgement zone, I guess I”ll tell you guys. =/

I thought that was Spongebob quote!! Apparently it’s an Ella Fitzgerald song. So yeah I need to get out more.

But I’d rather just stay home, read mystery novels, and sip on these delicious raspberry daiquiris. They’re a little more tart than a strawberry daiquiri. If your raspberries are out of season, you can always add extra sugar to your simple syrup to taste.

Super hot? You could also make this into a frozen raspberry daiquiri cocktail. Instead of shaking in a cocktail shaker(or mason jar!), blend with ice instead!
