Guest Posts! Cocktail Time by Meagan Parker

Dearest Foodies,

If you ever have a recipe, tip or anything you would like to submit please do! Every Friday and Saturday I will not be posting so this is the perfect time for you to submit your materials.

Today's post is from my sorority sister, matchmaker and dear friend Meagan, its about one of her favorite summertime cocktails.

Here you have it!

I got this receipt from my cousin's wife… she and her dad made these "as she was growing up" (she fits in perfect with my family) AnyHoo, we aren't really sure where the name came from, but you have to admit… it's kinda fun to say.

Ever look for that perfect summertime drink for by the pool, on the beach, or at the lake? Well your search has ended with this version of the traditional southern lemonade with a little KICK.

What you need:

• 15 Lemons


• 2 cups or sugar (Or for those looking for low-cal Splenda)


• 1 quart of Vodka: I like Zodiac

What you do:

Take a Sun Tea Pitcher (the kind with the little spout) and fill it up with ice. Add your 2 cups of sugar (Splenda). Next pour in the vodka. Then cut 12 lemons in half and juice them, adding to the ice, vodka and sugar. Slice up the last 3 lemons for looks and toss in the pitcher… put on the top and shake till all the sugar has dissolved (btw… great upper arm work out).

Fill a cup full of ice and pour yourself some lemonade!
