What is a trailer park martini you ask? Well it is the perfect recipe for the person who always makes sure that their liquor cabinet is well stocked but that their fridge is not.
It is for the busy yuppy on-the-go that is calorie conscience but that also wants to enjoy a few cocktails on a Friday night, and who finds it easier to stock many packets of Crystal Light than easy-to-expire fruit juices.
Trailer Park Cosmo Recipe
- 1 oz vodka
- 1 oz triple sec
- 1/2 oz lime juice
- 3 oz any flavor of Crystal Light (Fruit Punch, Raspberry, and Lime are the original bases)
In essence it is cosmopolitan martini, but with the cranberry juice swapped out for Crystal Light. Sounds peculiar ... but tastes fabulous. If you don't tell people it is Crystal Light they would never know.
As part of the trailer park beverage series, I would also recommend the following concoction for amaretto sours:
Amaretto-in-the-ghetto Sours
- 1 part amaretto
- 2 parts Lime Crystal Light
- sugar rimmed glasses
Here's to a Happy New Year's Everyone!
Drink Responsibly.
Happy new year!
ReplyDeleteCan you substitute horn rimmed glasses? You know, for virility.
I think this post would be better with a recommended wardrobe while consuming said beverage, perhaps with handsome male models (think Randy).
In case that wasn't clear, I meant that you should post a picture of Eric drinking one without a shirt on.
