THE REFRESH COCKTAIL (OR MOCKTAIL)
You can get away with this one all four seasons of the year! It’s like summer in a glass–not to mention a healthy and delicious way to refresh while you prepare to grill up your main course.
WHAT’S INSIDE

- 1 medium bottle of club soda
- a handful of thinly sliced oranges
- Rum or Vodka (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Grab your favorite pitcher
- Mix the orange juice, lemon juice, CBD, basil, and simple syrup until everything is evenly coated and mixed.
- Wait about 5 minutes to let the ingredients sit. Then drop in the berries and orange slices.
- If making a cocktail, pour in preferred liquor and stir
- Top with club soda!
- Fill glasses with ice, pour in the cocktail and enjoy!
A SUMMER CLASSIC, WITH A TWIST
You’re going to love this one — it’s a healthy twist on a classic summer favorite: hot dogs! This is great for those looking to celebrate and enjoy the holiday without getting too off track on their fitness goals.
WHAT’S INSIDE
- 1 pack chicken or turkey dogs cut into 1 inch pieces
- ½ red onion cut into large chunks
- 2 bell peppers, cut into large chunks
- 1 ml Resilience CBD oil of choice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 tbs garlic powder
- 1 tbs olive oil
OTHER ITEMS NEEDED
- Skewers
- Foil
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat
- Toss the chopped bell pepper, onion, sausage, salt and pepper, garlic powder, CBD, and olive oil in a medium sized bowl.
- Slide the veggies and sausage onto the skewers
- Place the skewers directly onto the grill. Shut the grill and cook until meat is cooked through (about 6 minutes)
- Lay the foil onto the grill and transfer skewers onto foil so the veggies continue to soften.
- Once fully softened, remove from grill and enjoy!
