OurHarvest, a New York-based online farmer's marketplace offering natural, locally-grown food products available for delivery and pick-up, shares four fruity cocktails to kick off summer.

Suns out, funs out, and what better way to celebrate the season than with some fresh and fruity summer cocktails? Fresh, quality fruits and locally-grown herbs help make these drinks even more enticing, and New York-based OurHarvest, the online farmer's market, helps you source the best natural ingredients to create these refreshing summer treats.

1. Paloma Cocktail. 2oz. Tequila; 2oz club soda; 2 oz. grapefruit juice; 1 grapefruit wedge and 1 tsp sugar make the Paloma Cocktail a natural summer go-to. The sweet and tart combo is a perfect pairing for a tequila base- sit back, relax and enjoy!
2. Vodka Thyme Lemonade. A fun twist on a seasonal favorite. Made with 2oz. Citroen Vodka; 2oz. lemon-thyme syrup; 1splash club soda and 1 sprig of fresh thyme, this is a great afternoon refresher while sitting on the porch or by the pool.
3. Caribbean Sangria. Equal parts pineapple juice, orange juice, white wine and coconut rum. Slice large pineapple wedges for glass rim- add pineapple chunks if desired. This is a great party drink and even a fabulous addition to a summer outdoor brunch. If adding fruit chunks to the base, you can make this drink the day prior to serving so the fruit soaks up the liquid for even more of a punch!
4. Kiwi Blueberry Mojito. 2oz. Rum, 2 oz. sparkling water, splash of lime juice, fresh blueberries, Kiwi and mint to taste. (Sugar for rim is optional). The blue and green colors in this recipe make for a very visually appealing drink. This is a great beverage to serve at showers and cocktail parties. Use blue colored rock salt on glass rims to add even more aesthetic appeal.
