All this summer cocktails are good but my favorite is strawberry key-limeade cocktail. Thanks for sharing this nice cocktail drinks ideas.
Oh my! You’ve made my summer so much easier, my friend! Loving all these beautiful cocktails! Thanks for including me in your round-up, Cheyanne!!
My pleasure, Annie! 🙂 Cheers, my dear!
I pretty much want to drink all of these!!
Jocelyn, I know right?? It’s taking me a bit, but I have grandiose plans to make and slurp every single one of these! 🙂 Cheers (literally)!
What a great round up! I would love it if you would link it up to Tipsy Tuesday at Grey is the New Black.
Thanks for stopping by, Pam. I would love to link it up to Tipsy Tuesday. I’ll head over to your site now! Cheers!
Oohh if I could make all these in one sitting without getting completely wasted, I totally would. They all look SO good, and now I know I will have the perfect cocktail guide for my summer. Thank you, Cheyanne! <3
hahahahaha! You and me both, Beeta. However, I think we would both be hating life the next day! #HangoverCity. Cheers, pretty girl!
Thank you so much for including me in your round-up, Cheyanne! I want all of these beauties…like now!
My pleasure, Justine! Thank you for creating and sharing a deliciously gorgeous drink that I could gulp up daily! Cheers!
What an awesome collection of drinks! I’m pretty sure I want to just have another Memorial Day weekend now. It starts today and it involves each and every one of these 25 cocktails! Ready…set…go!!
David, I am totally on board with having a memorial day filled with summertime cocktails every weekend. With the added extra day weekend! 🙂 Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting. Hope you had a wonderful, safe memorial weekend! Cheers!
Even though I don’t drink cocktails that often, I’ve got to say this set is gorgeous! I hope you post some lovely lemonade ideas this summer though (I’m kinda a lemonade kid). By the way, I’m trying a new image of me – a very serious person (perhaps even a bit nerd)…no sarcasm, joking and so on. Just for you 🙂
Ben, my husband makes fresh lemonade almost every weekend… I haven’t thought of posting it because it’s so simple. I’ll have to think of a fun non-alcoholic twist on his lemonade and post it. I’ll be sure to dedicate the post to you, my friend! Side note: I’m not sure I will ever be able to take you serious, full time. I take you serious, 24/7, as a food blogger though. And as a donut and marshmellow connoisseur. 🙂 Hope you and your significant other had a fabulous Memorial weekend. Cheers, buddy!
I basically meant some interesting lemonade twists – don’t worry about simple stuff. I allow. I’ve made a lot of lovely comboes, but you know – it’s always good to be inspired by something you could never even imagine. So, I believe in you guys – don’t let me down! About my reputation… That doesn’t sound optimistic. I’ve got to work hard on my new image. Perhaps, I should change my glasses frame which will help to get a smarter and more serious look 🙂
Alright, I will work on interesting lemonade twists, just for you my dear friend! As for your reputation… I meant that to be light heartedly optimistic. Besides, it depends if you are a glass half full or half empty kind of guy when it comes to your outlook! 🙂 I love the frame of your glasses, so DON’T touch! Cheers buddy
These all look so refreshing and amazing! Yum, yum, yum!
Thanks Annie! Wish I could take the credit for all of them, because they are so gorgeous 😉 I’ve tried a lot of them, and they are all delicious. I need a bit more time to make it all the way through the list. lol. Cheers, pretty lady!
Cheyanne! This roundup looks amazing! mouth watering cocktails! love this Cupid’s arrow recipe!!
Thanks, Gaila! Hope you and your family had a wonderful weekend… I’m not sure if you guys celebrate Memorial day down there?? If you do, hope it was a lovely. Cheers, girlie. xo
Yes! Girl, this is my kind of post! Every single one of these cocktails looks delicious and refreshing! I think to keep things simple I’m just going to start at the top and work my way through this whole list. Happy Memorial Day and Cheers!
So glad you like this RoundUp! I’m in the process of working my way through all of these cocktails too. I should be done by tonight. Kidding! lol 😉 Hope you are having a wonderful memorial weekend, filled with lots of delcious libations! Cheers! xo

Karrie, you and I will have to make one of these cocktails together while having one of our phone chats… since we can’t literally cheers each other, we will have to cheers via the telephone! Always my pleasure to include you. #GotYourBack Lots of love, girlie! xoxo
Cheyanne! You have outdone yourself here with this round-up. If this doesn’t have me dreaming of summer and sitting by the pool, than I don’t know what does. Cheers and enjoy the rest of your weekend! Thanks for the sangria love!
Liz, your sangria is to die for delish! Perfect for the pool, the beach, a grill out, or just because it’s tasty and refreshing! Wishing you a wonderful rest of the memorial weekend as well! Cheers, pretty!!
