    The keys to a successful ballpark cocktail are: a fast build, refreshing, and easy to drink. The Longfellow Lemonade from Du Nord Craft Spirits checks all of those boxes.

    The cocktail uses Du Nord's gluten-free L'Etoile Du Nord Vodka, distilled in Minneapolis's Longfellow neighborhood from sugar beets and corn, pureed strawberries and fresh lemonade, along with a little simple syrup to balance the tart lemons.

    It's a simple, spring and summer sipper that will please any palette.

    Du Nord Craft Spirits distillery and cocktail room is in Minneapolis's Longfellow neighborhood.
