Created by Dave Grimes at the Mattison Park in Asbury Park, New Jersey, this week is primed and ready for Summer. Made with X-Rated Fusion, a fruity vodka based concoction infused with blood oranges, mango and passion fruit, a shot of light rum and a bit of grenadine and you’ve got one cool refreshing drink.

I love cocktails where fresh fruit and a muddler meet at the bottom of a glass and Jason Lara’s Ginger Rogers cocktail could be a new love. Originally served at Social Hollywood in Los Angeles, Lara’s cocktail mixes Campari with muddled strawberries and clementine oranges making for a light, colorful Summertime treat.

I chose this drink more for the idea rather than practicality. Made with Three Olives Root Beer Vodka, this week’s cocktail promises every child’s delight – a root beer float. To pull this drink off the ice cream needs to be rock hard, otherwise it kinda melts into the drink. All the other other ingredients need to be super chilled as well. This a perfect drink for one of those Vegas ice bars.
