Drink of the Day: Southern Raspberry Tart
Nothing like a good summertime cocktail that is based with whiskey and complimented with fruit flavors. Mixed the right way and you don’t even know you’re having a beverage that consists of mostly liquor. The Drink of the Day today is a great example of what I’m talking about. Just be sure to watch your p’s and q’s when imbibing on these while enjoying the summer heat.
A perfect combination of Tennessee whiskey, raspberry liqueur, and Southern Comfort, with some citrus flavor added, gives you a drink that will quench you throughout the day. A perfect poolside treat that will be a great go-to for you whiskey drinkers out there.
