If you list the best things about summer, at some point both and will be mentioned. Of course, they aren't necessarily mentioned in the same sentence, but shouldn't they be? Think about it: Is there anything as quintessentially summer as a strawberry cocktail? After checking out this list, you'll surely agree... and then immediately want to shake up every single recipe and go sit on the porch.

The strawberry cocktails on this list include everything you want in a summer sipper from like daiquiris to countless and a or two that everyone can enjoy. And while most of these would be considered fruit-forward

, there are are a few where they play a berry important sidekick role. Frosé and bellinis make the list, for example. You don't normally think of strawberries when you make them, but you'll definitely miss out if you don't include them!

And just in case you're worried that summer will end and you'll miss out all the berry deliciousness when the weather turns cold, this is a friendly reminder that several of these strawberry cocktail recipes use frozen berries. So while they're in season and thank yourself later when they're not. Because you'll always crave that sweet sip of summertime, no matter what time of year it is.
