Springtime means warmer weather and the kick off of pool season. Pool season means it is time to bust out the White Claws. Say what you want, White Claws are my drink of choice when lounging by the pool. I wanted to find a way to enjoy White Claws to make me forget that I can’t get out of the pool just yet.

There are plenty of jokes out there about how White Claw is a “basic girl” drink. This cocktail is just a “step above basic”. It combines fresh strawberries, and vodka with the crowd favorite, Mango White Claw. You can really use any fresh berry you have on hand and any flavor White Claw you prefer. Be careful! The 5% alcohol in the Claw plus the addition of vodka will have these refreshing bevies sneaking up on you!
