A Popped Cherry.

I going to share with you the new cocktail my friend and I just made up. It's sooo good on a hot Summer day.

Vodka of your choice.
1 or 2 jiggers, depending on your tolerance/desires.
Organic cherry juice (I use Santa Cruz's Black Cherry), a few fingers' worth.
Seltzer.
1 tsp Chambord
Fresh chocolate mint**
(Frozen cherries as garnish, optional)
**There is such as plant as a Chocolate Mint plant. It smells and tastes like chocolate mint (more smell than taste). It is PERFECT in this drink. Go to your favorite nursery and ask for one.

This drink is what I will be having all Summer long. It's fresh and rich and feels like you're doing something good for your body instead of loading up on liquers and creams.
It is also good with vanilla vodka minus the chambord.

Happy sipping!
