DAY Recipe

INGREDIENTS

1/2 ounce vodka
1/2 ounce melon liqueur (midori, melloni…)
1/2 ounce peach schnapps
1/2 ounce blue curacao
1/2 ounce apple juice
1 dash carbonated carbonated lemon-lime beverage (if you like a less sweet drink use club soda)
lime wedges
cherries

DIRECTIONS

Combine all ingredients except soda and garnishes and shake well. Pour into a cocktail glass over ice and add soda to taste. Garnish with a lime wedge and a cherry (and an umbrella if handy).

Start with vegetable sticks and dip from the supermarket. Warm tortillas and a plate of sliced red onion, orange and avocado are nice sides. To end, sprinkle rum and brown sugar over fresh pineapple chunks. Look for the coconut milk in the Asian foods section of the grocery store.
