Hitting the Bottle: Cocktails Anyone?

Posted by Melissa Summers

I love Friday. I love a good cocktail. I love the spring. I love watching the kids play in the yard. I love sitting on my porch. Put all those things together and I've reached Mothering Nirvana.

Last week we served up The Choking Hazard with blue cheese and almond stuffed olives [Swoon]. This week we have a Logan Summers original:

The Time Out 

  • One shot cointreau
  • One shot vodka
  • One shot pineapple
  • Half shot chambord
  • Half shot lemon juice

In a cocktail shaker combine all ingredients and fill shaker with ice. Shake until your wife yells from the other room "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" well. Strain into a glass filled with ice.

You should probably make this a double, it's very tasty and you've got parenting under the influence to do.

I'm going to the liquor store to buy cointreau right now.

That sounds fantastic!

I was going to tell The Husband to pick up a bottle of wine, but I think he just needs to get pineapple juice instead.  We have everything else.  It's nice to know that I haven't given up my membership in the Junior Alcoholics Society now that I'm a Mama.  

I wonder if you could mix up a bunch of this, stick it in the freezer for a bit and get a slush?  I'll definitely try it and report back.

We alternated Triple Sec for Cointreau and Razzmattaz Raspberry Liquor for Chambord and it tasted perfect - at a quarter of the price! ;-)
