A Barely Pink Drink

Tricked you, friends!

No, that's not Tiki T. in the picture below, but the incomparable Patty Duke from her volatile role as Neely O'Hara in Valley of the Dolls. Undoubtedly you'll be wanting to wet your whistle while watching this full-chested flick, and Tiki T. has got the cure!



I'd like to start on this one about 24 hours ahead of time. Infuse some (cheap) vodka with a chamomile tea bag for a nice infusion. Take that bag out sooner than later! Or you'll end up with vodka as bitter as an aging Broadway actress (check the movie for that reference).

Pour chamomile vodka into a shaker with some pink grapefruit juice and a little elderberry liquor (Saint Germain http://www.stgermain.fr/ is a good one, pretty bottle too!).

Shake vigorously with ice and serve up. We found this naughty little number at the Barcelona restaurant in New Haven, Connecticut. Gracias!

So enjoy the kick off to the holidays, enjoy your drink and enjoy Sharon Tate's assets. The night looks promising!

XO!
Tiki T.
