This super summery cocktail is inspired by one of my favorite annual traditions—whipping up a batch of this awesome strawberry vodka (thank you, David Lebovitz and Sean Timberlake). So first pop over to that link and make some. It takes a little foresight, but not much effort, and the result is well worth it—a beautifully pink, fragrant, and fruity vodka that’s also delicious straight, over ice.
In a pinch, you could probably make a pretty good facsimile of the drink without it, by muddling first muddling the vodka with some fresh strawberries.
