32 Of The Best Spring Cocktails, According To Spirits Pros

I typically start to think about spring cocktails in the depths of winter. And let me tell you: It’s a wonderful little project to be working on. There’s no better way to spend the bleak, dark months of January than taking some time in the kitchen to tinker with bright and buoyant cocktail recipes that remind you of warmer times ahead: longer days, spring produce, flowers, and all that fun stuff. It’s certainly a lot more fun than participating in Dry January—or as I like to call it, thirty-one days of misery.

And this year brought in some stellar recipes. Take for example, Alexandre Gabriel’s very fun take on the French 75, in which the Citadelle Gin founder adds a teeny splash of cassis to the drink. There’s also Mob Wife Era—a vodka-prosecco-Aperol concoction by Jones Hollywood bartender Amy Jo Williby that you simply have to try based on its name alone. (I mean, how could you not?) And of course, there’s the Pink Elephant that the highly regarded, award-winning Leo Robitschek sent in—his Aperol-forward riff on “the Satan’s Circus cocktail from the opening menu of NoMad New York.”

All in all, there are enough stellar recipes here to spring you forward until summer. So go grab your bar tools and stir (or shake) up some fun. It’s never too early.

Best Spring Cocktails

CASSIS FRENCH 75

“The French 75 is a classic gin cocktail—one of my favorites in the world. It’s an association of several beautiful things from France. My secret for a French 75 is two barspoons of cassis liqueur (I use Mathilde, which was inspired by my grandmother). I grew up on a farm in South Burgundy and on Saturdays my grandmother served a bit of liqueur de cassis in a glass of sparkling water with a slice of lemon. That was our version of Coca-Cola, Burgundy style. I always have that reminiscence of cassis. When I make a French 75, I add two or three barspoons of Mathilde Cassis. It gives a nice hue and you have the aromatics of the gin that blends beautifully. The bubbliness of the Champagne marrying with the tartness and fruitiness of the cassis is absolutely delicious. Cassis always has that freshness as well. A beautiful cocktail indeed—for spring and all year long.” —Alexandre Gabriel, master blender and founder of Citadelle Gin

Ingredients

1.5 oz. Citadelle Gin

0.5 oz. Mathilde Cassis Liqueur

0.5 oz. fresh lemon juice

4 oz. sparkling wine

Lemon twist, for garnish

Method: Shake gin, liqueur, and lemon juice with ice and strain into a Champagne flute. Top with sparkling wine. Garnish with a lemon twist.


HARMONY G&T

“The Harmony G&T is, in short, harmonious. Thirty-seven hand-foraged botanicals are distilled either that day or the next and are delicately paired with an aromatic and bright combination of bitters and tonic. The cocktail was inspired by speaking to Geraldine, the forager, after she held a class for the Valerie team some years ago—listening to her tales of foraging and workshopping Glendalough seasonal gins into the Wild Botanical Gin that we love today.” —Marshall Minaya, beverage director at Valerie (New York, NY)

Ingredients

1.5 oz. Glendalough Wild Botanical Gin

2 dash Fee Brothers Rhubarb Bitters

4 drops blood orange tincture

Fever-Tree Aromatic Tonic

4 lime wheels, garnish

Thyme sprig, garnish

Method: Add gin tincture and bitters to a goblet filled with ice. Serve and pour 6 oz. of tonic for guests. Note: All dashes are via a cork dasher top.


BEE’S KNEES

This prohibition-era cocktail really is the Bee’s Knees and a super simple way to add a spring in your step. Fort Hamilton New World Gin is packed full of fresh fruit flavor with watermelon, cucumber, and citrus that it only needs a couple of other flourishes to make a flavorful cocktail.” —Alex Clarke, cofounder of Fort Hamilton Distillery Bar and Tasting Room, (Brooklyn, NY)

Ingredients

2 oz. Fort Hamilton New World Gin

0.75 oz. fresh lemon juice

0.5 oz. honey syrup (1:1)

Method: Add the gin, lemon juice, and honey syrup into a shaker. Add ice and shake until well-chilled. Strain into a chilled coupe. Garnish with a lemon twist.


AMIDST DREAMS

“I created the Amidst Dreams after reading South and West by Joan Didion on the beach. I was inspired by the sunshine and waves. And, to me, this is the perfect drink to transport you to that environment—from wherever you may be enjoying the cocktail.” —Reynaldo Pache, mixologist at Dreams Macao Beach (Punta Cana, Mexico)

Ingredients

1.5 oz. vodka

0.5 oz. ginger syrup

1.5 oz. apple juice

THE CAIPI LYCHEE

“The Caipi Lychee blends the robust notes of cachaça with the zesty tang of lime and the aromatic flair of the bergamot. The addition of the raspberry and lychee introduces a sweet, fruity complexity—creating a symphony of flavors. The cocktail represents an innovative reinterpretation of the traditional South American caipirinha, showcasing the distinctiveness of the cachaça spirit. In my opinion, the spirit is hands down Brazil’s greatest export.” —Radovan Jankovic, beverage director at Mercy Me and cofounder of Unordinary Hospitality

Ingredients

0.25 oz. Italicus Rosolio Di Bergamotto Liqueur

0.5 oz. rectified lime juice

1 oz. lychee cordial

1 oz. sake (junmai)

1 oz. Cachaça Prata

2 fresh raspberries

Mint sprig, garnish

Method: Combine ingredients and shake. Serve in a goblet over crushed ice. Garnish with a mint sprig.


MOB WIFE ERA

“Taken from my love of the traditional Venetian way to enjoy an Aperol spritz—with a little extra kick to the face. A springtime strolling drink with a surprise you will salivate for. The bitterness from the Aperol opens up your palate to enjoy the saltiness of the brine, while the citrus and bubbles quench your thirst. The vodka raises its stake to another level, bringing that extra we all thirst for; taking something that everyone seemingly already knows and cranking it up a notch. It’s beautiful, a little dirty, and packs a punch when you’re least expecting it. Who doesn’t love to be a little extra…embrace it. Own it. Enjoy it.” —Amy Jo Williby, bartender at Jones Hollywood (Los Angeles, CA)

Ingredients

1 oz. Grey Goose Vodka

1 oz. Aperol

2 oz. prosecco

0.5 oz. Dirty Sue Premium Olive Juice

Splash of soda

2 lemon peels

Dirty Sue olives, garnish

Method: In shaker tin combine vodka, Aperol, and Dirty Sue. In your desired glass, add prosecco, then strain the tin on top. Top with soda and add ice. Peel a lemon rind, express it on top of the cocktail, and discard. Garnish with Dirty Sue olives and additional lemon peel.


MAYENDA ELEVATED MARGARITA

“Our take on the beloved Margarita cocktail, elevated with Mayenda Tequila Blanco. An easy-to-make drink for all occasions.” —Jesus Susunaga Acosta, maestro tequilero at Mayenda

Ingredients

1.5 oz. Mayenda Blanco Tequila

0.75 oz. agave syrup

0.75 oz. lime juice

Hibiscus powder-dusted glass

Method: Fill a shaker with ice, add all ingredients, and shake. Strain into a shallow coupe.


PINK ELEPHANT

“I created the Pink Elephant cocktail as a riff on the Satan’s Circus cocktail from the opening menu of NoMad New York. Drawing inspiration from the vibrant fusion of rye whiskey, lemon juice, Thai bird chile-infused Aperol, and Cherry Heering, we set out to create a tequila variation. We aimed for a tropical, tiki-esque experience—all while delivering the bold and spicy character reminiscent of a classic margarita riff. It also pulls from a classic Singapore Sling and Giuseppe Gonzalez’s Infante cocktail. The Pink Elephant pays homage to its birthplace, the Elephant Bar in NoMad New York. The name not only reflects the cocktail’s distinctive pink hue but also alludes to the phrase ‘elephant in the room.’ Just like the cocktail itself, it defies traditional norms and stands out as a creation inspired by a myriad of beloved classics.” —Leo Robitschek, vice president of food and beverage at the Sydell Group

Ingredients

0.25 oz. passionfruit juice

0.25 oz. pineapple juice

0.25 oz. Cherry Heering

0.5 oz. lemon juice

0.5 oz. orgeat syrup

0.75 oz. spicy Aperol*

5 bird’s eye chiles

1 bottle Aperol

1 oz. Don Julio Blanco tequila

Pink peppercorn, rim

*Spicy Aperol: Add 5 destemmed, sliced, and pressed bird’s eye chiles to one full bottle of Aperol and allow the mixture to infuse for 10 minutes. Taste to check spice level. If the spice level is good, strain and bottle. If the Aperol requires more spice, leave the chiles in for a little longer.

Method: Add all ingredients to a shaker tin, shake, then serve in your rimmed glass.


SHORE LEAVE

“Shore Leave is an ode to spring with a punch of fresh pineapple and lime juice and the aroma of spring flowers, lychee, and cut grass from Widow Jane Paradigm Rye.” —Jacob Melinger, head of hospitality at Botanica, Widow Jane Distillery (Brooklyn, NY)

Ingredients

1.75 oz. Widow Jane Paradigm Rye

1 oz. fresh pineapple juice

0.75 oz. fresh lime juice

0.5 oz. Vigo Amaro

0.5 oz. Velvet Falernum

Fresh pineapple wedge, garnish

Method: Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice, shake until well chilled. Strain into rocks glass over large ice cubes. Garnish with fresh pineapple wedge.


SPRING FLING

“This cocktail is hope that fragrant blooms and warmer days are ahead after a long winter.

1.5 oz. blanco tequila

SPRING HAS SPRUNG SPRITZER

“This is a simple-to-make cocktail with a great visual charm. Bright bold flavors of ripe strawberries and cooling mint bursting with every bubble. This is a fresh and light way to have you sipping into spring time.” —Cassandra Taber, lead bartender at Pelham House Resort (Dennis Port, MA)

Ingredients

Strawberries

2 oz. Grey Goose Vodka

0.5 oz. fresh lemon juice

3–4 leaves mint

3–4 slices strawberries

Sparkling rosé

Method: Squeeze a few lemons into a shaker. Muddle mint and strawberries (you can use the handle of a wooden spoon). Add the vodka and shake. Pour into a wine glass, add ice, and top with your favorite sparkling rosé.


THE ORCHID

“This cocktail was inspired by the national flower of my country, Venezuela. It’s an aperitivo style of cocktail—low ABV—which can be enjoyed at any time of the year and at any weather. It’s slightly bitter, refreshing, and not too boozy—so it’s just perfect as an after-office drink or for celebrating with friends and family right before a meal. The Herradura Silver Tequila, with its distinctly sweet taste of agave and subtle oak notes, marries very well with the citrus and fresh notes of the lemon and the tartness of the grapefruit. Then it is mixed with two Italian products: the Italicus, which is a rosolio made with bergamot from Calabria and citrons from Sicily, and the Cocchi Rosa, which is an aromatized wine produced with a base of Piedmont red wines to which herbs, spices, citrus, and rose petals are added to bring forward the floral notes. After shaking the ingredients with ice, it’s strained into a short glass with ice and topped with Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic Water, which brings flavors of rosemary and lemon-thyme to strike the perfect balance of bitter, sweet, and herbaceous. Garnish the drink with two Castelvetrano olives, which are famous for their mild and buttery flavor and are going to add a touch of salinity to the cocktail. Salud!” —Jesus Verde, bartender at Here Nor There (Austin, TX)

Ingredients

15 ml. Herradura Silver Tequila

15 ml. Italicus

7.5 ml. Cocchi Rosa

7.5 ml. grapefruit juice

5 ml. lemon juice

50 ml. Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic Water

2 Castelvetrano olives, garnish

Method: Combine ingredients in a shaker. Shake. Pour into a small rocks glass.


CHOCOLATE GRASSHOPPER

“A Grasshopper is one of my favorite dessert cocktails because I love mint and chocolate flavors. Our Mozart White Chocolate, with its notes of vanilla, goes perfectly with crème de menthe. I always serve this Mozart cocktail at my garden parties. Our Chocolate Grasshopper is easy to make and simply delicious. Completely indulgent. And the vibrant color screams spring.” —Carina Planeta, senior brand manager at Mozart

Ingredients

4 cl. Mozart White Chocolate Liqueur

3 cl. crème de menthe

1 cl. cream

8 cl. vanilla milk

Mint leaf, for garnish

Method: Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake and strain into a glass with ice. Garnish with a mint leaf.


BROKEN BIKE

This gem of a drink is a sleeper and one that escapes my mind frequently. It’s refreshing all summer long. And due to the lower ABV you can drink them all summer long, too. It’s perfect for when your friend brings a questionable bottle of white wine to your house that you know you’re never going to drink. Or, treat yourself to some tasty Vermont wine like Ellison Estate Vineyard Louise Swenson.” —Kate Wise, bar lead at Juniper Bar + Restaurant, Hotel Vermont (Burlington, VT)

Ingredients

3 oz. white wine (or whatever you have on hand but avoid a buttery, oaky Chardonnay)

1.5 oz. Cynar

Soda water

Method: Fill your glass of choice and add the wine, Cynar, and top with soda water. Garnish with a lemon twist.

SMOKE ON THE WATER

“Our Smoke on The Water cocktail is inspired by the spring sunrise over the Puget Sound here in Seattle. The hint of watermelon and the jalapeño tease spring flavors while the mezcal will warm you up from the inside! It’s the perfect winter-spring transitional cocktail.” —Volkan Temel, bar director at Six Seven Restaurant at The Edgewater (Seattle, WA)

Lime wedge, garnish

THE GEORGIE

“When thinking of spring you want light flavors like lime and cucumber. The St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur adds a splash of je ne sais quoi to The Georgie, with pear and honeysuckle flavors to complement the cucumber and lime. This cocktail is versatile enough for the restaurant to give the guests the choice to add whatever spirit they prefer, making the drink delicious and refreshing with every sip.” —Mario Martinez, executive mixologist for Travis Street Hospitality

CADILLAC MARGARITA

The best cocktail for spring is the mezcal margarita. It’s the most popular cocktail internationally and goes great with mezcal. If you’re already a fan of mezcal margaritas, try a reposado the next time you make one. The citrus and salt combination pairs perfectly with the outdoor dinners that I enjoy much more of this time of year—I love to grill with a mezcal margarita in hand.” —Gilberto Marquez, brand ambassador at Ilegal Mezcal

Ingredients

1.5 oz. Ilegal Mezcal Reposado

0.75 oz. Grand Marnier

The Limelight Fizz is a lounge staple and crowd favorite.” —Zach Newsom, food and beverage manager at Limelight Aspen (Aspen, CO)

SERENITY GIMLET RECIPE

“The Altamura vodka is smooth and has a little richness to it. So with that in mind, I paired it with the green apple and avocado. The green apple gives the drink some brightness and fruitiness, while the avocado adds a touch of creaminess. The gimlet is a classic cocktail for spring, so I did my own spin on that by adding all the green colors as a nod to everything growing back after winter for the spring season.” —Takuma Watanabe, cofounder of Martiny’s (New York, NY)

Ingredients

45 ml. Altamura Vodka

30 ml. fresh green apple juice

In Southern California, spring and summer is strawberry season—so the fresh strawberries used make this the perfect seasonal drink. The Boater Cycle is a popular drink for guests to sip on during the warmer months, especially when it’s paired with the stunning oceanfront views at Las Brisas.” —Mario Ortiz, manager at Las Brisas (Laguna Beach, CA)

It’s an incredibly refreshing drink—colorful, effervescent, and tasty. The molecular magic mix of the white cranberry-peach juice, Cointreau, and lime juice does something very right. The pomegranate seeds and rosemary garnish this drink with such an inviting holiday aesthetic, and I’m already working on ways I can spin a summer variation of this because I don’t think I’ll be ready to quit it when the seasons change.” —Matthew Rosner, saloon manager at The Virginian Saloon (Jackson, WY)
