We’ve rounded up DIY cocktail recipes from Miami hot spots to inspire your next virtual happy hour. Because, let’s be honest, the “Quarantini” is whatever you want it to be.
The term ‘gulab’ translates to ‘rose’ in Indian culture, which explains why you are topping this with pink petals. At Byblos they use in-house made pomegranate syrup but feel free to muddle whatever berries are left in the the fridge.
Recipe:
1.5 oz. vodka 0.75 oz. pomegranate syrup 0.75 oz. lemon juice
Directions: Add all the ingredients into a shaker. Fill with ice. Shake, & strain into a glass. If you’re feeling fancy, garnish drink with 4-6 rose petals and a spritz of lemon zest.
Come on, people—this is a time when a little self-deprecation laughter is good for the soul. Put on your favorite Lululemons, make a Zoom date with your basic b*tch BFF and sip a cocktail while you binge-watch Laguna Beach season one together.
Recipe:
1.5 oz. Absolute Elyx Vodka 0.5 oz. St. Germain 0.5 oz. lemon juice 2 strawberries 2 sage leaves Splash of Prosecco
