Fruit drinks are so perfect during the summer. Michael is a gifted mixologist and I love his fruit drinks. Try a toast to the summer and Father’s Day with these chill-down:

Michael’s Apricot Fusion
2 oz. vodka
1 oz. apricot juice
1 oz. sparkling water
1.5 oz. simple syrup
Shake ingredients vigorously in a shaker with ice. Strain into martini glasses and garnish with a thin slice of fresh ripe apricot and a mint sprig. © Kelly McBride Loft
