Millennial Cosmo

We’d have to believe a millennial Carrie Bradshaw couldn’t turn down the Claw—it’s now a staple at NYC bars and rooftop parties. I couldn’t help but wonder: what would the rest of the girls think of this seltzer-y variation?

Aperol Spritz-o-Clock

This classic Italian apéritif isn’t just good before a meal—it’s always spritz-o-clock in my book. You can use soda water instead of the prosecco, but it’s much more fun to triple down on the alcohol.

Summer in the City Manhattan

They say the original Manhattan was made with rye, but obviously we had to make some changes. Orange hard seltzer and bourbon work great here for a nice, sippable whiskey cocktail.

Fizzier French 75

Mixing sparkling white wine with hard seltzer doubles the bubbles when compared to the classic French 75. Use wine glasses instead of the traditional champagne flute, because you’ll need extra room for all the bubbles in this recipe!

Feelin’ Bubbly Aperol Raspberry Float

This combines so many delicious things: Aperol, ice cream, hard seltzer, and even fresh fruit (look, it’s healthy!). Great as a dessert cocktail—but honestly, don’t be held back by time of day.

Watermelon Sugar Slushy

This watermelon slushy is dangerously refreshing—perfect for a hot day at the beach. Or for pretending that it’s a hot day at the beach. In Malibu. With Harry Styles. Okay, too hot! Freeze the watermelon overnight; it is best served as cold as possible.
