The Green Demon is February 18th Drink of the Day!!
What originally started as a shooter, this drink is so smooth and refreshing it’s probably not a bad idea to take a little more time with it by adding some ice and drinking it as a cocktail. The green color of this drink will attract others to try and once they do, you better be prepared to make many more. Nothing like combining melon flavor with lemonade. With the vodka and rum along with the previous ingredients mentioned, you may have found yourself the next summertime hit.
3/4 oz. Vodka
3/4 oz. Light Rum
3/4 oz. Melon Liqueur
3/4 oz. Lemonade
Method: Fill an old fashioned glass with ice. Pour in equal parts of all ingredients. Stir and garnish with a maraschino cherry.

Shaun,
Love the drink but your day in history is just a tad bit off. It was JULY 18 and not February.
Cheers!
El Jefe,
I would like to inform you that I have fixed the history notes on February 18. Thanks for letting me know about the error.

Wow! Now you’re just being hurtful. Well, if nothing else, you’ll have me fixed before this is all said and done.
