I don't really have a good tie-in this week as world news has been a significant downer, the Mavs are having trouble with their point guard and I have no interest in Hollywood's annual self-gratification. So, today's cocktail is one that was emailed to me quite some time ago with a link to Pinterest. The emailer in question wanted my opinion on the drink (hopefully said person still religiously follows my blog in order to get the answer today). I must admit that I was a little hesitant to try this. Pinterest has some downright awesome craft, costume and kid's entertainment ideas, but as far as alcoholic libations go...it tends to be a little dicey. But worry not, dear blog readers, I am here for you. I sampled this drink of questionable origin as many times as was necessary to correct it and give you what you deserve!
Yes, I know, I'm a saint.
SNEAKY TEQUILA
2 oz Tequila
2 oz Coconut Rum
1/2 oz Peach Schnapps
1 oz Pineapple Juice
1 oz Cranberry Juice
Add all 4 ingredients to a martini shaker 3/4 full of ice
Shake vigorously
Pour into a highball (or regular 12 oz drinking glass)
You'll note my recipe varies from the Pinterest article. As I said, I made the mistake of trying this before you did. A simple splash of pineapple and cranberry just is not enough. Trust me on this one. Otherwise, there will be very little "sneaky" in your Sneaky Tequila.
