I was out shopping earlier when I saw this

Hmm.. I like mixed drinks. I want to taste the Summer. Let's check it out!

All these tasty drinks, but which one to chose? A ha! This one sounds perfect. Smirnoff Apple & Lemonade

First you'll need a glass. Mine is dirty because I've already drank about four of these before I decided to make this.

Next you'll need Smirnoff Apple vodka. I don't have any Smirnoff so I'm using Rachmaninoff instead. It tastes really bad and doesn't have apple, but it will be fine for our drink.

The recipe calls for 35ml vodka but I like mine a little stronger. The amount of vodka is personal preference.

Next up is ice! I forgot to make more ice so there isn't much here.

Add your ice to the glass. The more you add, the colder your drink will be.

Next up, lemonade! I don't have lemonade so I'm using 7-Up. While this isn't lemonade, in our situation it works out even better! (You'll see why later)

Unfortunately since I was pretty much out of 7-Up so the bottle was mostly empty. Add your 7-Up, being careful not to shake the bottle violently before opening it as this will cause the 7-Up to lose its fizz.

If you've done everything right so far, it should look something like this

Next we need to stir the drink. We need to do this because we are making a mixed drink. Without mixing it would simply be a martini.

Enjoy your ice cold Summer drink!

"But wait" you're screaming. "You didn't add lemon or lime!"
We didn't use lemon or lime, but think back to when we added our lemonade. Instead of using Lemonade, we added 7-Up which is a lemon and lime flavoured drink. This means adding lemon or lime to our drink would make it overpowering with sourness and it would be almost undrinkable.
If anybody has any questions please post a reply in the comments and I'll respond as soon as possible.
