The Best Whiskey Cocktails for Summer

Summertime is upon us and that means it's time for sunshine and spirits! Are you a fan of whisky drinks? Are you interested in finding whiskey drink recipes? Or maybe you're just looking for a new whiskey cocktail to enjoy instead of that boring old whiskey on the rocks? This list is going to provide delicious summer cocktails that are all easy-to-make whiskey drinks.

Despite its late night, rough around the edges reputation, whiskey is just as versatile as any of its booze-y brothers and sisters. During the fall and winter, whiskey can be enjoyed as a warm beverage with notes of cinnamon and apple (can't you imagine sitting by a fire with a blanket already?). But during summer, whiskey kicks off its leather cowboy boots and trades 'em in for a pair of flip flops and a nice summer porch.

Sweet and succulent citrus is an indicator that summer has arrived, and many of these recipes call for citrus. Whether it be a delicious whiskey lemonade or the classic whiskey sour, a splash of ice and a colorful garnish are all you'll need to top off these deliciously refreshing cocktail drinks. 

So get in the spirit of summer! Invite your friends to sip on a delicious whiskey punch while playing bocci ball in your backyard. Don't have a backyard? Enjoy the simple flavor of an old fashioned while sitting at your kitchen table with the windows open on a hot summer night. Whichever whiskey cocktail peeks your interest, just remember to enjoy!
