I was watching a local station while visiting Nashville last week and over the lunch hour saw some recipes for summer time beverages.\u00a0 Well it’s been hot down there for a while but it was perfect timing for this Indiana girl.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What normally happens is they use crazy ingredients you don’t have, expensive ones you won’t buy or they leave out some sort of detail.\u00a0 Of course here it was\u00a0the details.\u00a0\u00a0 So after some testing, I know such a sucky job to have here is what I came up with.<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong>
\n3\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0oz of Vodka
\n3.5\u00a0\u00a0 oz of sweet and sour –see below <\/em>\u00a0(store bought is good too)
\n1\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 oz of Blackberry Sangria –see below<\/em>
\n4 mint leaves and 1 for a garnish<\/p>\n

Pour ingredients into a\u00a0shaker, SHAKE and pour into tall ice filled glass.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Take the garnish mint leaf and\u00a0spank it (you know place it in your palm and smack with the other hand) now lay it on top of your drink.\u00a0You could asd a\u00a0splash of\u00a0diet\u00a07UP. \u00a0ENJOY!!!\u00a0 *This is a revision.\u00a0 At first I was making 1\/2 as much, straining and serving in a chilled martini glass.\u00a0 VERY elegant but difficult to balance and it was to good to sip.\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n
