Dry Vanilla Bean Elderflower Cooler | Tipsy Tuesday

By Pam Greer 19 Comments

Vanilla Elderflower Cooler

 

I’m going to go ahead and declare myself official cocktail representative for The Dry Soda Company.  No, they didn’t ask me and no this is not a sponsored post.  It is simply me sharing one of my favorite new ways to make cocktails.  You see, pretty soon it’s going to be summer.  In the summer I like big cocktails.  Cocktails in a big glass with ice – no small sipping cocktail.  Filling that big glass with alcohol would be problematic to say the least, so I love being able to top off my cocktail with a little mixer, a little soda, a little tonic.

Vanilla Elderflower Cooler

 

Move over tonic and club soda, my new favorite topper is Dry Soda!  I originally discovered them with this Gin Cucumber Cooler.   I loved it so much, I decided to try my hand at a cocktail using their Dry Vanilla Bean Soda.  After tasting the soda, it was just a matter of finding what went with it.  After much happy sampling, we settled on 360 Madagascar Vanilla Vodka, Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur, St. Elder Elderflower Liqueur, and the Dry Vanilla Bean Soda.   It was so good!  The perfect Saturday afternoon, sitting on the back porch, watching the hummingbirds cocktail.  It was sweet and refreshing!

    Looks and sounds delicious!! And thank you for another reason to drink up my elderflower liqueur! Yes, it was one of those things I bought having no clue what to do with it, but I do love it. 🙂

    Refreshing is the first word that pops into my thirsty mind!
    Amazing stuff! Grey is indeed truly the new black (although this is not technically grey – it’s the color of AWESOME!)
