Was in a creative mood the other night and came up with an excellent drink to enjoy on these nice and warm summer days. I call it a Spring Splash.
Spring Splash
- Soak any non-flavored vodka in freshly cut strawberries and a cup of sugar overnight.
- In a Boston Shaker, add ice and 1pt Bacardi O, and 1pt of the Strawberry-Soaked Vodka. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
- Add 1.5 oz of the mixed liqueur to a chilled martini glass (rimmed with sugar if you want to be fancy).
- Add 2.5 oz of Minute Maid Lemonade.
- Top with a splash of "Splash" (AKA V8 Splash, pick your flavor: I like the Mango one) and two drops of fresh (if you can) lime juice.
- Garnish with a strawberry and serve.
It sounds like a hard drink to make, but it's very easy and EXTREMELY tasty! I whipped this drink up for a little pre-funk before we headed out, I had 4 of them and was feeling pretty decent. Enjoy........and drink responsibly. hehe
