The spring season is all about fresh starts, bright days, and…fruity drinks. Just us? Well, you’re welcome to join in on the fun with this easy orange crush cocktail recipe. This refreshing drink has been a favorite in the FYP office. Equal parts tart and fruity, an orange crush cocktail is ready to party whether you serve it as a signature wedding cocktail or at a spring fling.
Take Your Cocktail to The Next Level
Taking the time to make your own citrus juice will take the orange crush cocktail up a notch. It comes together in about ten minutes in a blender. The combination of tangerines and oranges make for peak freshness, and as a bonus, the color is stunning.
If you’re busy with other party planning obligations, feel free to sub a fresh store-bought citrus juice. We recommend tangerine if your local grocery store has it, but orange juice will work as well. Whichever way you make the orange crush cocktail, this fresh cocktail recipe will be a go to in your kitchen as we near the warmer seasons.
