Classic Summer Drinks To Down This Summer Based On Your Zodiac Sign
Listen, sometimes you just have the urge for someone to decide things for you, especially when a server at a bar is looking at you expectantly.
Aquarius: Aperol spritzer
(January 20 – February 18)
With a mix of prosecco, aperol and sparkling water, this Austrian drink (known there as an apertif) is the best cocktail for an Aquarius to bring out their quirky, travel-the-world vibe.
Pisces: Bellini
(February 19 – March 20)
Rolling with the prosecco, bellinis are mixed with a little bit of peach purée to bring out what pisces are best known for: being sweet and dreamy. Plus, bellinis are also one of the most aesthetic looking drinks, and you can definitely add a little bit of a pattern with the grenadine on top.
Aries: Caesar
(March 21 – April 19)
As spicy as Aries are, caesars are even spicier. This Canadian drink is a mix of clamato juice, tobasco, worcestershire and vodka, this drink is just like you: daring and brave. Make sure to make one with a bunch of sides (including pepperinos, pickles and celery) for a truly classic caesar.
Taurus: Mint Julep
(April 20 – May 20)
For the luxurious and stubborn Taurus, we suggest a mint julep: bourbon, sugar, water, crushed and fresh mint… how much more extra of a drink can you get?
Gemini: Sangria
(May 21 – June 20)
Geminis are lively and adaptable, and nothing says that better than a drink that you can have multiple ways. Take a sangria with red wine or white wine, and with any assortment of fruit: it’ll still be as amazing as you are.
Cancer: Daiquiri
(June 21 – July 22)
Daiquiris (especially blended strawberry ones) are the perfect cocktail for a Cancer: imaginative and caring, there’s nothing that says ‘cute’ more than a pink blended drink with a bit of sweet rum.
Leo: Frosé
(July 23 – August 22)
Leos are known for being elegant and entertaining, and nothing says either of those things like the new cocktail trend, frosé. A mix of rosé wine, strawberries and lemon juice blended together makes a perfect summer drink, and you’ll look as elegant as ever (especially if you use a rose gold cup, just saying).
Virgo: Martini
(August 23 – September 22)
Virgos are precise, clean and clear-cut, and there’s also no better way to describe a martini. With just a mix of gin and vermouth, and a couple of olives for flavour, this drink is bound to go exactly with your vibe.
Libra: Pina Colada
(September 23 – October 22)
Pina coladas are a classic, just like you: being a charming and social butterfly, this colourful and tropical drink is sure to bring out the best of your traits. Plus, with the mix of a bunch of ingredients (including rum, pineapple juice, and coconut milk) it also has your indecisive nature.
Scorpio: Sex on the beach
(October 23 – November 21)
Scorpios are one of the boldest of all the star signs, and are known for being dramatic and demanding. So what better to reflect that than a mix of vodka, peach schnapps, orange and cranberry juice? Plus, let’s be real, you’ve wanted to try the drink AND the act… so why not do both this summer?
Sagittarius: Old fashioned
(November 22 – December 21)
The name says it all. Being one of the most traditional and wise of the signs, an old fashioned is the best drink for a Sagittarius, especially if you mix the cocktail with classic Angosta bitters and bourbon.
Capricorn: Moscow Mule
(December 22 – January 19)
With it’s fancy copper cups, even the aesthetic of this cocktail looks like a Capricorn, seeping with ambition. Then you add the vodka and the ginger beer, the zest reflecting the confidence of the hard-working sign.
