Drink of the Day: Acapulco
Don’t know where you live, but I am having a little bit of a culture shock with the weather today. The brisk autumn winds are turning into winter ones, and I need something to block my thoughts of another cold Midwest winter. I think I may have found a Drink of the Day to do just that!
A nice blend of liquor known for their tropical presence, along with some citrus flavors, will do well on blocking out the reality of the season for a few moments, especially while imbibing in front of a nice fire. I may not be where I want to be in regards to the warm climate and sandy beaches. But I can still drink like I am.
Hope you enjoy today’s selection. Have a wonderful Thursday, everybody! Cheers!
