It’s officially Spring in New York! Even though the calendar said Spring started by date nearly a month ago, today was an amazing day in the city. Street vendors were all smiles as people lazed around from Wall Street to Harlem on their lunch breaks, taking in the glorious sunshine and great feeling that only the first truly warm day can bring. With temperatures hovering near 70, it’s safe to say Spring has sprung.

The city is full of favorites: warm breezes, light spring colored-clothes and fun sandals in every shop corner anticipating scorching temps ahead, people walking puppies and ice cream trucks throughout Chelsea. All these simple pleasures, it’s time for a cocktail that is simple and pleasurable! This one you can get at the bar or try at home and is refreshing and so very easy to make.

Vanilla Vodka with Ginger Ale

Take your favorite vanilla vodka (Absolut, Stoli, etc)
Pour a few shots over ice (hey, it’s Friday…maybe you do need three!!)
Fill the rest of your glass with ginger ale.
Stir.

Voila! Presto! You’ve just made a delicious easy drink the whole family (over 21) can enjoy.

And don’t just use vanilla, try any flavor and check it out! Just like an old fashioned Italian soda. Only, with alcohol!
