With its vibrant pink hue and exotic name, this drink is truly captivating.
With a refreshing mix of vodka, tangy pink lemonade, and a splash of sweet grenadine, once you’ve tried it, you’ll be savoring every last drop.
You’ll need:
- 1 cup of ice cubes
- 1½ ounces of vodka
- 3 ounces of pink lemonade
- Splash grenadine
- Lime wheels/wedges for garnish
PRO TIP:
This recipe makes one drink. You can easily double or triple the recipe to share with friends.
Substitutions And Additions
LEMONADE: Substitute raspberry lemonade or even regular lemonade for the pink lemonade. The grenadine will still tint the drink pink if you use regular lemonade, but the pink color of pink or raspberry lemonade really gives the cocktail a lovely color.
VODKA: You can also substitute lemon vodka for this grown-up drink recipe.
How To Make This Pink Flamingo Drink Recipe
OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS
This pink drink looks especially lovely in a martini glass, but any glass can be used. Serve over ice if you want to use a larger glass. Chill glasses in the freezer for 15-30 minutes before preparing the cocktail for a nice, frosted look and to keep the drink colder a bit longer.
A quick shake in your cocktail shaker, and you’ll be sipping on this refreshingly delicious drink in a few minutes. Let’s get started.
STEP ONE: Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
STEP TWO: Add the vodka, lemonade, and a splash of grenadine to the shaker. Shake vigorously.

STEP THREE: Pour into a chilled martini glass.

PRO TIP:
Serve your delicious cocktail immediately, so that the ice doesn’t melt.

How To Serve
Pink flamingo drinks are the perfect addition to any summer gathering, from poolside cookouts to patio parties. Serve with our fruit salsa and cinnamon chips for an appetizer. Our strawberry lemon cupcakes would be the perfect way to keep the pink theme.
A fresh summer watermelon salad with juicy watermelon, crunchy cucumber, and tangy feta cheese would be a mouthwatering choice. Alternatively, some light and crispy chips and guacamole would satisfy any salty cravings.
Easy cocktails are the name of the game on a hot summer day. Try our screwdriver drink and watermelon cocktail for two more fruity choices.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Check these cute toppers out on Amazon to make this fruity drink extra fancy.
We like the size of a martini glass for this pink flamingo cocktail, but you could use a larger glass, such as a highball glass or even a hurricane glass if you prefer. Fill the glass with ice and add your tasty beverage.
This alcoholic beverage won’t keep well as the ice will melt and water it down. It is best to make it right when you are ready to enjoy it.
