Living in Florida it gets HOT! I am always looking for some drink recipes that can help me stay cool. Thanks to some submissions by a few blogger friends (and with their permission to use the photos in this post) I have a few summer drink ideas to share with you.

I definitely think these are some ways we can beat the summer heat. I am looking forward to making each and every one of these at some point this summer (and fall seeing as Florida doesn’t cool down until about February). I am thinking I may even be able to get my kids to drink quite a few of these and get some fruits and veggies in them. Be sure to click on the links above each photo to head over and see the full recipe! A great big thank you to the bloggers who allowed me to showcase their photos!
What are some of your favorite summer drink recipes?

What a perfect round up of recipes for this hot hot summer! So many refreshing options to choose from, yummy! Which one should I try first?
Thanks so much for also including mine, so flattered 😉
Where to start? I’ll have one of each please. Free refills, right?
Yes please! I’ll take one of each! It’s hot here in Texas, I need some cool drink recipes to keep me cool 🙂
Hmmmm, I need to try all of these! Yum!
Those all look so sweet and delicious!
That peach & strawberry smoothie looks so refreshing!
Oh my, I don\’t think I could just pick one of those. They all look so amazing. Thanks for sharing these Toni.
Yummy!! They all look so delicious!!
I’m not sure where to start, haha.
I’ll take one of those oreo cookie shakes, please! 🙂
Wow, they all sound so good! The lemonade and mint and of course the oreo cookie….
Those look so delicious. I am going to pin this so that I can go back and try some.
These drinks look TERRIFIC!
Those all look so good, I do not know which one I want first!
These all look so yummy and refreshing for summer!
That strawberry mango lemonade looks really good.
OH my, these all look so yummy!
That mint lemonade looked amazing. I make rosemary lemonade often in the summer and love it as a refreshing treat!
Some of these look awesome! I am so glad that some of these do not have banana as an ingredient! I am allergic to bananas so I always get bummed out when I see an awesome smoothie recipe and it has bananas.
They looks so yummmy and mouth watering and I’ll have to ask my wife to make it for me! 😀
I love ALL of these – I would like to have one of them every day – that would be cool and refreshing and perfect. I’d really like to try the Papaya smoothie. Yum!
