Summer is a-comin'. You know what that means? Family BBQs, beach days, and more fun outdoor activities, but most importantly sipping on our favorite ice-cold beverage in the sun.

Finally, there's light at the end of the tunnel now and the good weather is on the way, so our editors have been on the hunt for some fun new drinks we want to try this summer.

That's how we came across a fruit-infused blanco tequila company called 21Seeds.

21Seeds is generating buzz from celebrities such as Jessica Alba and Naomi Watts, and it was even as part of Oprah's "It List"! It came about when one of its founders, Kat, was told by her doctor that she had to cut her daily glass of wine from her diet as it's harder to digest fermented products as we get older, so with the help of her sister Nicole and BFF Sakira they made an alternative.

Here are 5 reasons 21Seeds is our summer drink of choice:

1. 3 Refreshing and Fruity Flavors

21Seeds offers 3 delicious infusions; Valencia Orange, Grapefruit Hibiscus, and Cucumber Jalapeno. These flavors are so delicious they can be enjoyed on their own, or combined with a mixer or garnish. If you've never been much of a tequila drinker, 21Seeds will change that.

2. Low In Calories, Natural Ingredients, Gluten & GMO-Free

Summertime always means we'll have whatever low-calorie options we can get. 21Seeds is naturally flavored with real fruit, plus it requires no calorific add-ons to make it taste good. 21Seeds is definitely one of the best alcoholic drinks for ladies, and the best alcohol for diets like keto!

Not to mention it's all-natural, gluten-free, and non-GMO. Our bodies have a hard time digesting products that have been fermented as we get older, so this is a great alternative to wine.

3. Fun Summer Cocktails

The best thing about 21Seeds is its versatility. It can be sipped by itself, or used in a recipe for a delicious cocktail. They have tons of the best tequila cocktails recipes on their site; the Cucumber Jalapeño Tequila goes perfectly in a Jalisco Mule, the Grapefruit Hibiscus Tequila tastes amazing in an Orange Señorita, and the Valencia Orange Tequila is life-changing in a Negroni. This is definitely the best tequila for margaritas, they have the best margarita recipe we've ever tried!

For us, summer is all about simplicity, so we'll be having ours with some ice, a touch of seltzer and a squeeze of lime. Perfection!

4. Crowd Pleaser

If you're having a family BBQ you can feel confident that 21Seeds will be a crowd-pleaser. The flavor packs just enough punch without being overbearing. Anyone can make 21Seeds their own by adding their favorite mixers and ingredients. This is what makes it a safe choice if you're unsure what drink to get for people. It would even make a great gift for a tequila lover!

5. Perfect For Sipping In The Sun

The flavors could not be more perfect for summer weather. Add it to a glass of ice for a refreshing, subtly flavored drink with the right amount of sweetness. It's a perfect option for a hot summer day.

Their fruity flavors and natural ingredients have completely redefined the way we think about tequila. We always associated tequila with sugary cocktails or the occasional shot. But 21Seeds is a drink that can be sipped on, and it's the best low calorie alcoholic drink we've tried.

Make the best cocktails ever with 21Seeds, it's officially our #1 recommendation for drinks to try this summer. Check out 21Seeds today, you won't regret it!
