The finale of The Summer I Turned Pretty has us swooning, sighing, and maybe reaching for a cocktail or two. From Belly and Conrad’s slow-burn romance to Jeremiah’s irresistible charm, the Cousins Beach drama lingers, and what better way to extend that sun-soaked, heart-flutter feeling than with a gin cocktail in hand? Pour, shake, and sip through the twists, glow-ups, and messy summer love that leaves a little sweetness on your lips.
