Cocktail Hour featuring Raspberry Lime Rickey

7 Aug

RaspLimeRickey-10

Remember when I had my first job at a neighborhood apothecary and would have raspberry lime rickies on my break everyday from the ice cream shop across the street? I do. Remember how that was 1996 and not 1952?

Here’s an adult version of this enjoyable drink I created. Utilizing Chambord, a favorite liquor of mine – as well as some other spirits – I took this innocent summer refresher and gave it a bit of an edge. Just picture it wearing a leather jacket next to a hot rod – or just picture me drinking it with my hair dyed blue from Manic Panic and wearing thrift store clothes, minus the straight-edgeness that was my 16 year old self.
