Our favorite murder-mystery, White Lotus, has an insane theme song that’s been stuck in our heads since the start of Season 2, making us dream of warm weather holidays at luxurious island resorts. The vacation cocktails included in our latest blog transport us to our own White Lotus experience… but with less murder and more flavor. Special thanks to the bartenders at Red Mesa Mercado in St. Petersburg, Florida, for sharing a few tropical cocktail recipes with us, including one that has us trilling like the opening credits of the nation’s favorite satirical dramedy.

Postcards From Rita

This cocktail is sweet and fruity, like every good tropical getaway.

.75 oz Thatcher’s Organic Blood Orange Liqueur
1.25 oz Smirnoff Vanilla Vodka
1.25 oz POG juice
.75 oz coconut cream
Sugar rim
Guava purée swirl
Whipped cream, garnish
Orange slice, garnish
Maraschino cherry, garnish
Paper umbrella, garnish

Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake until well chilled. Strain into a glass rimmed with sugar and over crushed ice. Pour guava purée swirl over. Garnish with whipped cream, orange slice, cherry, and paper umbrella.

 

Blood Orange Aperol Spritz

This blood orange twist on the classic Italian Aperol Spritz amps up the drama. Perhaps because the Aperol Spritz is a supporting character in the second season of White Lotus.

1 oz Thatcher’s Organic Blood Orange Liqueur
1 oz Aperol
2 oz blood orange juice
3 oz prosecco
Ice
Blood orange slice, garnish

Fill your preferred glass with ice. Add Thatcher’s Organic Blood Orange Liqueur, blood orange juice, Aperol, and prosecco consecutively. Garnish with blood orange slices.

Hawaiian Sunset

This cocktail uses vodka as the heart of a traditional tiki cocktail.
