Happy Cocktail Friday everybody!! Sometimes a super cold, light and refreshing cocktail is exactly what the doctor yeah right ordered hehe. I know, I know, it’s cold in and around most of the western world but honestly I was so needing a cocktail and something heavy sounded just terrible.
I wanted refreshing, and to me Arnold Palmers are nothing if not refreshing and a little Brandy never hurt anything so woohoo there’s my drink! I think delightful is the perfect adjective for this cocktail, because you don’t really taste the liquor, not too sweet, not at all too bitter or tasteless, just perfect.
Also, I totally cheated and bought already made un-sweet tea and lemonade, but please forgive me, sometimes I just want to get to my drink and I don’t want to take the time to make everything,
I’m human, hey but I did zest my own lemon, go me. Anyways, have a wonderful, wonderful Friday and weekend.
lemonade…
unsweetened iced tea…

for a tasty and beautiful rim, start by zesting your lemon…
