Put Your Feet Up Summer Cocktail

My friend Jackie came up with this concoction for a hot summer day. She describes it as “dangerously refreshing” since it is a delicious thirst quencher that nonetheless has enough vodka to all but guarantee a lazy summer afternoon. You could, of course, omit the vodka if you were intending to be more productive.
