MEXICAN SCREWDRIVERS

Recently while on vacation in Todos Santos, Mexico my friends and I came up with this drink which we dubbed 'The Mexican Screwdriver'. Since we had all this fresh citrus fruit available to use we had to take advantage! This is what we came up with and it is delicious! I think I drank about five of them one day beside the pool because they were so refreshing and totally hit the spot. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS:

2 Oz of Vodka ( I like Tito's Vodka because its Gluten Free)
4 Oz of Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice
1/2 Oz of Cointreau
1 Oz of Freshly Squeezed Pomegranate Juice

DIRECTIONS:

Mix all Ingredients in a cocktail mixer. Give it a shake and add to a glass filled half way with ice. Serve!

 

I hope you enjoyed this recipe as much as I do. If you have any comments please leave them below and I'll be happy to answer them as soon as I can! Happy cooking!!!
