This is also known as Nuts N’ Berries, but this is what I originally know it as. It is one of those cream drinks that goes down as good as the sandwich it’s named after. One of my many lunch time snacks, (the food I mean, unless I’m having a rough day at the office!). […]
What do you get when you combine coconut, pinapple, and lemon flavors to a rum and cognac drink? The answer is, one helluva summertime cocktail! This is the perfect drink this time of year, blending together the drink of the Caribbean with the drink of France. Add a little fruit juice and citrus to the blend […]
This is what I like to call a Screwdriver on steroids. If a highball of just vodka and orange juice isn’t going to cut it, I highly suggest one of these. Though the triple sec is a minute ingredient in this drink, it enhances the citrus flavor and, at the same time, calms the vodka. […]
Pools everywhere in the Mid-West will be opening up in a couple weeks, so it is vital to get prepared by having a nice list of cocktails to enjoy while basking away in the sun.

I almost missed getting this out as the Drink of the Day today. I was at work last night when the Kentucky Derby was mentioned. If I wouldn’t have been in the middle of that conversation, another drink would have been chosen. In the occupation that I live and breathe that would not have been […]
This is not your kids summertime drink. This is the adult version that was introduced to me by a lady from Tennessee that I wanted to share. A very refreshing, yet powerful cocktail that was very popular in my bar the other night when it was introduced. I had to make this the Drink of […]
Here’s another flaming shooter for you. However, unlike the Flaming Dr. Pepper Shooter, you do not have the convenience of the beer to snuff out the flame. This one you have to blow out. Be sure to make sure the flame is completely blown out. This blue flame can be hard to see. Also, be […]
Considered one of the most famous Pre-Prohibition drinks of the Twentieth Century, the Sidecar is considered one of six basic drinks in David Embury’s book, The Fine Art of Mixing Drinks, published in 1948. Embury recognized this drink being invented by an American Army Captain that would frequent his favorite bistro and would be driven […]
