Screw Driver

Screw Driver

The Screwdriver reportedly got its name because American petroleum engineers in Saudi Arabia secretly added vodka to small cans of orange juice and stirred the mixture with their screwdrivers in the late 40’s. It gained prominent in the 50’s and has remained a popular drink since. It is usually one of the first drinks many people try since all you can really taste is the orange juice. It is an easy addition to your party list with only 2 ingredients, Vodka and OJ.

Sazerac

In 1838, Antoine Amedie Peychaud, owner of a New Orleans apothecary, treated his friends to brandy toddies of his own recipe, including his “Peychaud’s Bitters,” made from a secret family recipe. The toddies were made using a double-ended egg cup as a measuring cup or jigger, then known as a “coquetier” (pronounced “ko-k-tay”), from which the word “cocktail” was derived. Thus, the world’s first cocktail was born!

Earthy botanical, Santa’s Mule is a cocktail with the combination of the sweet of the Cranberry Vodka and the spicy notes of the Green Chartreuse and Ginger Beer.  This is a different kinda cocktail that could make Santa trade his reindeer in for this mule. Move over Rudolf!

Santa’s Ice Tea

Santa’s Ice Tea

Santa’s Ice Tea is a great iced tea drink that could also be served warm.  We preferred it chilled but either way its a great cocktail.  The whiskey and the chai tea really complement each other and the cherry liqueur offset the spice notes and sweetened up the tea.  Yum is all we have to say.  Great winter drink!

A great summer drink with a salted rim and tang of grapefruit juice it is a drink for those of you who prefer salty over sweet.
