Drink of the Day: The Robert Frost
Here is a cocktail that is one of the many signature drinks you would find at the Dead Poet located in New York City. A very smooth and sweet, yet very potent beverage that hides the flavor of liquor very well. A nice mix of various fruit flavors helps in this regard.
The vanilla vodka base does well in blending all of the other tastes so well that they were meant to be together in the first place. A great combination of melon and citrus,. as well as the other ingredients does a good job in complimenting one another. This is not your children’s fruit punch, but it sure will taste like it.
Enjoy and relax this Sunday with something to treat yourself to after a day working out in the yard. Have a wonderful day, everyone! Cheers!
