July has been hot and sticky here, and we&#8217;ve been in great need for a drink in the backyard that&#8217;s not going to be too heavy for the weather. Garden cocktails are absolutely necessary from now until October in SoCal.<\/p>\n<p>Enter this sweet yet vegetably cocktail, which packs in a couple veggies and some vodka for good measure. It&#8217;s almost like you&#8217;re drinking a super healthy juice, except ice cold with some vodka.\u00a0The idea came to me when I was thinking about how sweet bell peppers can be, and how they get undermined a lot as a juice of choice.<\/p>\n<p>Carrot juice is everywhere, beet juice is showing itself at Trader Joe&#8217;s, but no bell pepper juice! And why, when they&#8217;re so beautiful and delicious? So I grabbed an orange and a red one, and off I went to make a cocktail.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-18374\" src=\"http:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Pepper-Radish-Martini-3-1200x801.jpg\" alt=\"Pepper Radish Martini | Garlic, My Soul\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Pepper-Radish-Martini-3-1200x801.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Pepper-Radish-Martini-3.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Of\u00a0course, like all good things, I added some chilled vodka because it&#8217;s summer and vodka make us feel like it&#8217;s vacation all over again. And a radish, because I like my vegetables a little spicy &#8211; feel free to add a little black pepper, even, if you like! This was the right choice for an eighty-five degree afternoon sitting under an umbrella in my backyard reading a book and munching on a snack.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-18376\" src=\"http:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Pepper-Radish-Martini-5-801x1200.jpg\" alt=\"Pepper Radish Martini | Garlic, My Soul\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Pepper-Radish-Martini-5-801x1200.jpg 801w, https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Pepper-Radish-Martini-5.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 801px) 100vw, 801px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This cocktail is great with a tray of snacks &#8211; cheese and crackers anyone?

Or let&#8217;s be real, have it alone then call it a vegetable serving, because it\u00a0really is&#8230;just with an added bonus. Whatever you do, try this soon because it&#8217;s easy and delicious and a great departure from overly sweet summer drinks that leave you sour the next day.
