THE DREAM DRINK
In a large pitcher combine the following:
1 cup pineapple juice
1 cup vodka
½ cup St. Germain
1 ½ bottles white wine
Chopped apples
Today was a Monday,
but it didn’t seem like one to me. It was more like a dream day, full of
beaching, boating and going out to dinner. The DREAM DRINK fit right it. Making
it was a little nightmarish — all that alcohol made it seem like it would be a
strong one — but one sip and I knew the DREAM DRINK was a keeper. To make it,
Hubby put the ingredients above into a pitcher, stirred it well and served it
with glasses full of ice. Floating apples make a lovely garnish. Grapes and
mint leaves are other possible garnishes.
The DREAM DRINK was
white wine on steroids and it was goooooood. It was fruity, but not sweet. It
was strong, but only in the best possible way. It also reinforced for me the
power of pineapple juice. Mix pineapple juice with any type of alcohol and, not
only does it cover up the taste, it also instantly puts the cocktail into the
tropical catergory. St. Germain and white wine make a great pair too and would probably
be good all on their own.
Be sure to take a bit
of the apple after the DREAM DRINK is drunk. It certainly livened up a cornhole
game my family played in the rain underneath the beach house we are renting in
North Carolina. It helped me win for my team, and to have sweet dreams.
