With Midsummer’s Eve upon us and strawberries taking a staring role at local farmers markets, a refreshing cocktail is perfect for those lazy crazy hazy days of summertime. That bottle of body-warming bourbon is probably still hanging around from your long winter hibernation. This simple smash combines some of the best seasonal ingredients the Pacific Northwest has to offer. It is packed full of vitamins and minerals with bright lemon and fruity berry terpenes and a little mellowing cannabis-infused bourbon. Expect this smash to quickly get played on repeat—over and over and sometimes over again. Enjoy, but drink responsibly especially if the alcohol used is cannabis-infused.
