How to Make This Tantalizing Watermelon Blueberry Smash Cocktail

How are you celebrating Memorial day? We’re getting together with some friends. I have a feeling there will be some grilling and imbibing. I’m not a huge drinker, but when I do have a drink, I like it to be fruity. To highlight some of the best produce of the summer, I created this blueberry watermelon smash cocktail. It is the perfect summertime drink and makes great use of the fresh berries and watermelon you can get this time of year.

How to makeTo make this blueberry watermelon smash cocktail, you need fresh blueberries, watermelon, lemon, vodka and sparkling water. I chose to use a berry-flavored sparkling water, but any fizzy drink will work. As for the vodka, I used SVEDKA with the patriotic stars and stripes summer packaging, which is perfect for the upcoming summer holidays. I like SVEDKA because it is distilled five times and imported from Sweden. It is the number one vodka brand in the US (Adams, 2015) and is the perfect vodka to bring people together around delicious drinks. When you try SVEDKA for yourself, make sure to use the Shopkick app to earn 75 kicks for scanning the UPC at the shelf and 200 kicks for purchasing the product. Also, make sure to look for the neck hangers  to save $2.00 off, in stores.

If you’re interested in trying this blueberry watermelon smash cocktail, first you need to make blueberry syrup. If you want the drink to be a bit chunkier, you can leave the blueberry pieces in it. Once you have the syrup, you can make the watermelon concentrate simply by pureeing chunks of watermelon. If you like, you can leave it in pureed form for a thicker cocktail, or you can strain it.  As another option, if you want a really chunky drink, you could just smash the watermelon. Since watermelon is mostly water, it breaks down really easily. Once those two steps are complete, you can add as much of each of the fruit concentrate to a glass, add a shot of SVEDKA, and top the drink with sparkling water.

I also created these adorable little fruit toppers by using a bamboo stick with five blueberries and a star-shaped watermelon. I made the little stars by using a small star-shaped cookie cutter and sliced pieces of watermelon.

Not only is the drink delicious, it is so festive for Memorial Day and perfect for the 4th of July too. I hope you have a great summer with family and friends, and this recipe is the perfect thing to bring everyone together.

MLK weekend vibes💙. It has been so warm in LA w MLK weekend vibes💙. It has been so warm in LA we spent all day at the beach yesterday. Today, we are taking in local parks and another gorgeous day. But, my heart is heavy with the state of our world. 
.
Today, as we celebrate an important figure in the fight for Black equality, I’m choosing not to share one of his famous quotes because that’s too easy. Simply sharing his words without considering or sharing my perspective about the current state of our country feels disingenuous at best.
.
I’ve struggled with how to talk about the insurrection because I still find it all so shocking. And the fact that I am shocked is a problem. That our country can be so divided that it’s difficult for me to even fathom how people could participate in this divisiveness.
.
The insurrection happened on my birthday, as I flew to Puerto Vallarta. Landing in Mexico and learning about what was happening felt surreal. I still can’t wrap my head around it, honestly.  What scares me the most is the hate. The idolizing of a white supremacist ideology is terrifying. It terrifies me for my children. For their safety. For their lives.
.
I understand that a lot of hate is spurred by fear, lack of understanding and discomfort. Today, I hope we can all think about how to be more open to thoughts and perspectives that our different than our own. Be more accepting of people who look different, who have different cultures and life experiences. Today, I hope we can all collectively try to confront every human interaction from a place of love and kindness. If we all spent a little more time considering the other person’s life or story, I think we’d have a lot more peace and happiness. #mlk #mlkday #mlkweekend

That's why I love having @Progresso Toppers soups on hand because they make quick and  tasty lunch options when I'm super busy. They are so convenient - and the soup also comes with a topper for the perfect crunch. They come in five different flavors and are ready in minutes. All five flavors of the Progresso Toppers are made with quality ingredients and no added sugar, or artificial flavors, or colors. If you're looking for a quick, convenient and delicious lunch option, definitely check out Progresso Toppers! #progresso #progressotoppers #takeacrunchbreak

I’ve received a lot of DMs about traveling to Puerto Vallarta. New on poshinprogress.com, I’m sharing a full blog recap, including my thoughts on traveling during the pandemic and the experience we had.

Here’s a bit about where we stayed —  @villapremiere — is doing a fantastic job at keeping their employees and guests safe. Everyone is required to wear a mask; social distancing is maintained at all restaurants and public spaces; staff do not enter rooms except for room cleaning when the room is empty; hand sanitizing stations are present throughout the resort; hotel capacity is capped to ensure proper social distancing. I honestly felt very safe. If you have any other questions, please dm me or leave your questions below.
