Tipsy Turkey Cocktail Recipe

Happy Thanksgiving Eve! I've got Thanksgiving recipes for you, but if you need a break from all the cooking (or dealing with your relatives), I also have a fun Thanksgiving-themed cocktail I made up last year - the Tipsy Turkey (and no, it's not your father/mother-in-law/grandpa . . . )

Ingredients:

• 2 oz orange vodka
• 1 1/2 oz cranberry juice
• I like to use 100% cranberry juice - it tastes a lot better than the cranberry juice cocktail that's mixed with apple juice. 
• 1 oz lime juice
• 1/2 oz orgeat
• 1 cup crushed ice  

Combine the ingredients in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously.

Pour into a tiki mug (or any relative who won't shut up about politics) and enjoy!

Passionfruit Cocktail

Today I'm sharing another cocktail recipe - the Passionfruit Cocktail. This drink is easy to make and very tasty. I used the recipe from Trader Vic's Tiki Party! to make this one. 

Ingredients:

• 2 oz gin
• 1 1/2 oz passionfruit syrup
• 1 1/2 oz lemon juice 
• 1 cup crushed ice

Combine the ingredients in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously.  Pour into a tiki mug or glass of your choice.

Enjoy!
