Yummy summer smash cocktails

Smash cocktails are my absolute favorite go to drink. Not always great in a bar but certainly great to make at home. There is no better way to sweeten your cocktail than with fresh summer fruit. You can mix and match fruits and spirits. I personally love a whiskey peach smash, especially with a fresh Fredericksburg peach and a basil lime with vodka. YUMMY :)
