Cocktail Time!

This is my mother.  Isn't she classy?  And pretty?  And  ultra cool?

She visited me last weekend.  After the kiddos went to bed, we set up cocktail time.  I love cocktail time.  It's a nice respite to look forward to at the end of the day. 

My husband and I love this cocktail.  The original recipe is called a White Lady.  We've modified it a bit to make it a longer drink.  It tastes fresh and sweet, but not too sweet.  Watch out, though, they go down smooth, but are a lot stronger than they taste.  One is enough.

We also had some sweet potato fries.  This brand is super tasty! 

White Lady

2 shots gin
1 shot triple sec
1 shot lemon juice
tonic
ice

Rim a glass with sugar.  Mix the liquor and lemon juice in the glass.  Add ice and top with tonic, then stir gently.
