Imbibe’s New Issue Is
Out! Now that our Summer Drinks Issue has launched, we can finally kick back and drink in all it has to offer.
From garden-fresh cocktails to summer’s best sparkling wines, this summer
promises to be one of pure refreshment. And we want to see which drinks from
the issue you’re making at home! Upload your Instagram pics and tag
#MixtheMag—we may share your photo!
Cold Coffee. Here at Imbibe HQ, we drink a lot of coffee. So
when the weather heats up, we trade our hot brews for cold ones. Iced coffee
easy to make at home (click here for instructions), or you can just reach into
your grocer’s cold case and twist the cap on one of the numerous pre-bottled
cold-brews now available (here are some of our favorites).
Smashes. We’re declaring this the summer of smashes. As
adaptable a cocktail style as they come, smashes typically involve muddling
fresh fruit or herbs, a spirit of your choice and lots of ice. Our Summer Drinks Issue features eight frosty favorites, or try mixing up this one or this one.
Taking the Party
Outdoors. Summer is the season of
backyard barbecues and picnics. We rounded up six of our favorite outdoor-ready
bags and baskets in the current issue (including this fun tote), and we’re already
packing them full with these pre-batched libations.
Frozen Boozy Treats. Piña colada popsicles? Yes, they exist, and yes,
they are ridiculously good. We went about creating a frozen boozy sweet treat
that would stay as true to the taste of the original cocktail as possible, and
after several test batches (it’s tough work, people), we found the maximum
amount of rum we could add while still getting the pops to freeze solid. Make
them now—you can thank us later.
