Weekend Cocktail: Firefly Iced Tea Vodka & Lemonade

Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka and LemonadeIf you are from the South, you know Sweet Tea. When the waitress comes to your table in restaurant around the South and you ask for tea, the response is always the same: "sweet or unsweet?"

Sweet Tea is wonderfully refreshing on a hot day. AS IF there could be any improvement on a standard like sweet tea--- the folks at Firefly Vodka took that tradition to a whole 'nother level. For our cocktail recipe this week, try this one. The perfect tailgating cocktail, it's a spin on the classic Arnold Palmer-- half iced tea, half lemonade--- and so easy because you only need two ingredients. They have tons of recipes on their site if you want some other ideas.

Firefly Spiked Sweet Tea Lemonade

1 part Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka

1 part lemonade (worth it to make fresh!)

Pour in a tall glass over ice. Stir well. Add a lemon slice for garnish. This one should be served in Mason jars--- you can get a dozen for under $10 and then use them for canning after the party is over.

Let's raise a glass and say a prayer today in honor of all of those who lost their lives on 9/11. And to those servicemen and women who serve and protect our country around the world--- thank you.
