CÎROC VODKA LEMONADES AT
25 DEGREES CHICAGO

25 Degrees Chicago (736 N. Clark St.)

We were invited by 25 Degrees (736 N. Clark St.) to try out their new Cîroc Lemonades! And while this summer has been a late one, it's been making up for lost time with this heat, and these lemonades are perfect for every sunny moment of the season.

We got the chance to try out the Cîroc Pomegranate and Cîroc Summertime Lemonade before they hit the drink menu, and both were absolutely delicious. Jess loves anything pomegranate, so she naturally chose the Pomegranate Lemonade as her favorite, while Jill loved the splash of watermelon in the Summertime Lemonade! 

Want to try them out? You can find the recipes below!

Getting busy!

25 Degrees is also known for their delicious burgers, so we decided to be adventurous and choose from their 'craft your own' burger menu. Jess had a ground sirloin and fried egg burger, topped with English Farmhouse Cheddar. Jill kept it simple with a ground sirloin and English Farmhouse Cheddar. We also had some French fries, sweet potatoes fries, and perfectly fried onion rings. Our stomachs are rumbling just talking about it, maybe we shouldn't have written this post before dinner.

And all the sides!

Knowing what she was getting into, Jess perfected the "time for vodka lemonades and burgers outfit". Jess wore an oversized Marciano denim shirt, GUESS leggings, DV by Dolce Vita 'Diandra' sandals, a Capwell & Co. necklace, rings from 2020AVE, and a Marc by Marc 'Natasha' crossbody.
