Big Squeeze Instructions
The Big Squeeze is a refreshing cocktail that is perfect for a sunny day or for unwinding after a long day. This cocktail is made with fresh citrus fruits and a splash of vodka, creating a tangy and citrusy flavor that will leave you wanting more.
To make the Big Squeeze, start by gathering your ingredients. You will need fresh lemons, limes, and oranges, as well as vodka and simple syrup. Begin by squeezing the juice from the lemons, limes, and oranges into a pitcher. Make sure to remove any seeds or pulp from the juice.
Next, add a generous splash of vodka to the pitcher. The amount of vodka you add will depend on how strong you want your cocktail to be. If you prefer a milder flavor, add less vodka, and if you want a stronger cocktail, add more.
Once the vodka is added, pour in the simple syrup. Simple syrup is made by dissolving equal parts sugar and water together. You can make your own simple syrup at home by heating equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan until the sugar is fully dissolved. Let the simple syrup cool before adding it to the pitcher.
After all the ingredients are in the pitcher, give it a good stir to mix everything together. Taste the cocktail and adjust the ingredients to suit your preferences. If it is too tart, add more simple syrup. If it is too sweet, add more citrus juice. Feel free to get creative and add any additional flavors you like, such as mint or ginger.
Once the cocktail is well mixed and tastes just right, fill glasses with ice and pour the Big Squeeze over the ice. Garnish the glasses with a slice of citrus fruit or a sprig of mint for an extra touch of freshness.
The Big Squeeze is a versatile cocktail that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of foods. Its bright and citrusy flavors make it a great accompaniment to seafood, grilled chicken, or light salads.
So, next time you are in the mood for a refreshing and tangy cocktail, give the Big Squeeze a try. With its fresh citrus flavors and just the right amount of vodka, it is sure to become a favorite in no time.
Best served in a Highball Glass.
