Since Frank Zappa was a non-drinker, I doubt he had anything to do with the name of this cocktail. However, this drink is probably named for its simplicity to put together, yet complexness in flavor. A vodkatini with triple sec added, it is definitely for the imbibers that like to taste the flavor of the […]

There is an argument that has been going on in the bar industry for years on the original recipe of the Long Island Iced Tea. I would say that there is no majority either way and, to be quite honest with you, I do not know what the true original recipe was. But, the cocktail […]
