Arctic Summer Instructions

Arctic Summer is a refreshing cocktail that's perfect for hot summer days. This icy drink is packed with flavors of crisp apple, tangy lime, and cooling mint. It's a delightful combination of sweet and sour, with a hint of minty freshness.

To make an Arctic Summer cocktail, start by muddling fresh mint leaves in the bottom of a glass. This will release the fragrant oils and flavor of the mint. Next, add a generous squeeze of fresh lime juice, which adds a zesty brightness to the drink.

For the main ingredient, choose a high-quality apple cider. It's important to use a cider that is not too sweet, as the lime and mint will already provide plenty of sweetness. Pour the cider into the glass, filling it about three-quarters full.

Finally, add ice cubes to the glass. The ice will help to chill the drink and dilute the flavors slightly, making it more refreshing. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a slice of lime, if desired.

Arctic Summer is a versatile cocktail that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of dishes. It's a great choice for picnics, BBQs, or any outdoor gathering. The combination of apple, lime, and mint is always a crowd-pleaser.
