Today was one of my days off from work, I work 4 10s so I get a random day of during the week, which is usually Thursday. I love having a break from the week, but it is quickly become my least productive day. Without Nate around I tend to sleep in a little later, then I am willing to admit, and very rarely get anything of note done.
So today after getting a pedicure and going to the library to get some new books, I found myself on the couch watching tv (or as I like to call it cleaning the tivo), with my favorite drink in hand, the famous(at least to us) OC Ice Tea.
The OC Ice tea comes from one of our favorite restaurants, Old Chicagos. We originally were hunting for the recipe so we could have their version of the Long Island Ice Tea at our wedding. By the time the wedding came around, we still hadn't mastered it, and let the bartenders come up with one for us. It was delicious, and strong enough to take down 3 of 4 bridesmaids, but it was no OC Ice Tea. After almost a year of trying, it turns out that you HAVE to have the exact sour mix they use to make it work. Lucky for us our local alcohol superstore was happy to order us a case. We of course bought it and have been enjoying ever since. In case anyone is tempted with this yummy cocktail-
OC Ice Tea
1 ounce Vanilla Vodka
1 ounce Orange Vodka
1 ounce Raspberry Vodka
3 ounces Oceanspray sour bar mixer
splash of Coke
Be careful they are tasty but strong!
Cheers!
