How to Make an Apricot Crush

To make an Apricot Crush, you will need fresh apricots, citrus juice (such as lemon or lime), vodka, and ice. Start by cutting the apricots in half and removing the pits. Place the apricot halves in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Next, strain the apricot puree to remove any pulp or solids.

In a shaker, combine the strained apricot puree, citrus juice, vodka, and ice. Shake vigorously for about 20 seconds to combine all the ingredients and chill the cocktail. Once shaken, strain the cocktail into a glass filled with ice. You can garnish your Apricot Crush with a slice of fresh apricot or a sprig of mint for added visual appeal.

The Apricot Crush is best enjoyed immediately after making it, while it is still cold and refreshing. Sip slowly and savor the sweet and tangy flavors of this delightful cocktail. Whether you're lounging by the pool or hosting a summer gathering, the Apricot Crush is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

So next time you're in the mood for a refreshing cocktail, give the Apricot Crush a try. It's the perfect way to celebrate the flavors of summer!
