NYC Summer Drink!

The NYC heat waves are no joke!

I was in the Lower East Side with my siblings and we needed to cool off when I spotted Essex Market, surely they had to have something to drink.

Pleasantly enough, you walk into a cute indie market with plenty of vendors selling food, drinks, and even bags and accessories!

We stopped at Essex Squeeze for some freshly squeezed watermelon lemonade. It was a little sour but super fresh and I’d give their other drinks a try as well!

They also have better cash pricing but I only had my card at the time. Let me know if you try!

Place : Essex Squeeze inside of Essex market on lower East Side
