Strawberry Jam Mint Cocktail
Oh do I have a delicious cocktail recipe for you today. This Strawberry Jam Mint Cocktail recipe basically taste like summer in a glass! Perfect for the upcoming holiday weekend. Strawberry, mint, and lemon are some of my favorite summer flavors and this Strawberry Jam cocktail has them all.
It starts with a nice dollop of strawberry jam. I actually made my own homemade jam this week, which actually prompted this cocktail creation. Don’t worry store-bought is fine too. I also have an abundance of mint from my herb garden. If only I had a lemon tree too, I’d be set!
I prefer vodka in my summer cocktails typically, but I think bourbon or gin would be delicious in this recipe also.
You could also switch up the flavor of the jam or use basil instead of mint too. The options are really endless with this one!
After shaking the jam, vodka, mint, and lemon juice together in a cocktail shaker you top it off with sparkling water or club soda.
You can use any kind you like, even add a flavored variety. I used lemon spindrift in mine for a bit of extra lemony flavor. Perrier, la Croix, Topo Chico – any kind of bubbly water will work.
You could also forgo the vodka and have a refreshing summer mock-tail.

Made this for a barbecue on Memorial Day and making it again today for Father’s Day. It’s delicious! We tried lime in place of lemon and it was equally as yummy!
