Method
Cocktail
- 1
Build in shaker
Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Pour in 2 oz Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka and 4 oz fresh lemonade. If you prefer a slightly sweeter drink, add 0.5 oz simple syrup. For a brighter, more citrusy note, add 0.25 oz fresh lemon juice.
- 2
Shake
Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for about 10–12 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is frosty and the liquid is well chilled and slightly diluted.

Strain & Serve
Fill a highball glass or Collins glass with fresh ice (about 1 cup). Double-strain the shaken mixture into the glass to keep it clear and bright.
Garnish & Finish
- 4
Garnish with a lemon wheel or wedge on the rim and a sprig of fresh mint if using. Optional: slap the mint between your palms first to release the aroma before placing it in the drink.
- 5
Serve immediately with a straw or stirring stick. Adjust sweetness to taste by stirring in a little more simple syrup if desired.
