The John Daly: The Boozy Brother of Arnold Palmer #recipe The John Daly cocktail recipe with lemonade ice cubes The John Daly: A Boozy Arnold Palmer with Lemonade Ice Cubes The John Daly cocktail recipeGrey Goose and fresh herbsThe John Daly with fresh mint

While living in the South, I’ve become a lover of iced tea, but I am, of course, always open to making a drink boozy.  And as a big golf fan, I decided it was about time to share a recipe for a boozy Arnold Palmer, better known as a John Daly. 

Our Boozy Peach Lemonade has always been one of the most popular cocktail recipes in the WOM archives, but I was inspired to go the iced tea and lemonade route after seeing a little Instagram inspiration from my girl Bradley of Luella & June.  I mean anything with lemonade ice cubes is a hit in my book.  And being so easy to make and have on-hand, the stash lemonade ice cubes can be used to impress your guests any time time you’re entertaining this summer! 

Since I had the pleasure of hosting a wonderful soiree for our friends at Grey Goose and UrbanDaddy a few weeks ago, I knew Grey Goose would just have to be the star of this libation. Along with the Goose, all you’ll need is lemonade, fresh herbs (I love mint personally) and iced tea, and there you have it.  So where will you be enjoying a John Daly?  Truly, MKR

On a recent trip to Mexico, the Mr. and I fell in love with a little cocktail called The Paloma.  The Paloma combines tequila with the tart and fresh flavors of grapefruit and lime to create the most refreshing of libations.  A typical Paloma recipe is topped with a lime or grapefruit wedge, but I really love adding a slice or two of jalepenos for some heat.  Or try a fresh sprig of thyme or mint to cool it down.  Either way you shake it, or top it, I guarantee this Paloma recipe will quickly become a new five o’clock favorite.  Truly, MKR

If we’re telling truths here, I’ve never been a fan of eggnog.  Not that I had ever tried it or anything, I couldn’t get past the whole idea of raw eggs.  But the older I got, and the more I watched National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, the more I felt I needed to conquer this fear.  So I spent yesterday in the kitchen trying out a few different recipes until I found just the right one; a Spiked & Spiced Eggnog.

By combining your standard eggnog ingredients but adding a bit more spice and getting a little help from my friends called Amaretto and Absolut I can now not get enough of this delicious eggy-nog-nog.  And how gorgeous is the new Absolut Andy Warhol bottle?  I’m gifting one to my mother this holiday season to sit atop her new bar cart.  So for all you last minute gifters might I suggest a little Andy Warhol and some nog?!  Truly, MKR
