National Piña Colada Day (7/10)

Nothing screams warm weather like a Piña Colada. Celebrate this beloved cocktail on National Piña Colada Day. The frosty combo of rum, pineapple juice, and coconut is a match made in heaven. You can even add frozen pineapple chunks instead of ice for an even frothier texture.

National Mojito Day (7/11)

Mojitos are a summertime classic. With muddled fresh mint and lime juice, you really can’t go wrong. There is nothing better than a classic Mojito. If you are feeling frisky and want to make a riff on this cocktail, add basil instead of mint. Or go the extra mile and make fresh blackberry syrup to add. Here is our classic version.
