'Orange Soda'


Hurrah for the first beverage entry! This is a refreshing drink that will make any hot and humid day seem like a walk in the park. Make sure to use good quality liqueur - it will make a HUGE difference in the flavor. Also, do make sure to measure out the alcohol; this is no time to get creative with the measurements.

'Orange Soda'

1 brimming jigger Cointreau or Grand Marnier
Tonic water
2 or 3 ice cubes
Lime wheel or wedge

Chill a Collins or old-fashioned glass in the freezer for at least 20 minutes.

Put 2 or 3 ice cubes in the glass and add the Cointreau. Top with tonic water and squeeze in a bit of lime juice. Use a stirring rod and mix well.

Sip slowly and enjoy. Or, gulp it down...it's your choice! Feel free to repeat as necessary.
