MIDORI SOUR is a fun and fruity cocktail made with just a few ingredients! It’s been my go-to cocktail for years and it’s just perfect for girls night, St. Patrick’s Day and all special occasions!

I absolutely adore a good punch or cocktail. I think they are so fun to make up for parties and it really can make an event feel special. I have been a Midori Sour girl forEVER. It’s my go-to drink at restaurants and one of my favorite cocktails to make at home. It is sooo easy to make and the flavor is just amazing. Bright, refreshing, and fruity!
When I’m at blog conferences and we go out, this is what I order. Every. Time.
This cocktail is perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. Or Christmas. Or anytime during the spring or summer. Or Friday. You get where I’m going with this, right?
If you want a stronger drink, just eliminate or cut back on the Sprite. I love adding the Sprite though because it makes the drink fizzy and even more fun. The lemon-lime flavor just goes perfectly with the Midori liqueur.
To make a pitcher for a party, just multiply all the ingredients below by 4 or 6 or 8 – or however many cocktails you want to make and enjoy responsibly 🙂
