Now that we've learned a few tips for creating our own cocktails, we've been experimenting a bit. We've found one combination that's super-simple and refreshing using Trader Joe's Villa Italia Blood Orange Italian Soda.
OK, so we didn't exactly follow the fresh juice tip, but it's still really tasty ...
Blood Orange Gin Fizz
1 ounce gin
Blood orange soda
Lemon slices
Fresh mint
Muddle the mint and lemon slices in a glass. Add ice and gin, and top off with soda.

I served these up at our pool party this weekend and we went through a full bottle of Bombay in about an hour! This might be my new favorite summer drink. Thank you!
