It’s officially August—the month where we say goodbye to the laid-back days of summer and hello to another busy school year. But that doesn’t mean the fun has to stop, y’all!
Beat the lingering summer heat with our drink of the month: the Cucumber Watermelon Fizz! It’s the perfect drink for parents to come and soak up the last few moments of summer relaxation or unwind from the hectic first days of school.
We use local ingredients to create this delicious concoction, mixing Corsair Gin, sweet and sour, ginger ale and cucumber with muddled watermelon, lime and simple syrup for a refreshingly light cocktail. Served in a Mason jar and garnished with lime, this beverage is the perfect summer’s farewell.
Come share a toast to another wonderful Tennessee summer with the Cucumber Watermelon Fizz anytime this month. We assure y’all it’s as good as it looks!
