Use Tito’s Vodka for an Azalea Cocktail
The Azalea Cocktail with Tito’s Vodka may not be the official cocktail of the Masters Tournament at the Augusta National Golf Course. But judging by the number of attendees with one in hand, it sure seems like it.
The rumor on how the cocktail came to be is a combination of urban legend and what seems to be the big pink Azalea on the course. In fact, there are Azaleas in bloom everywhere on the Augusta National Golf Course during the Masters Tournament. However, Azaleas are blooming all over the southern region of the United States of America during the spring as well. The cocktail was designed in the early 20th century, so we all know it’s a southern cocktail with many different recipe variations. The one everyone seems to be talking about today is Tito’s Handmade Vodka recipe. This makes sense because Tito’s Handmade Vodka is the official vodka of the PGA Tour. If you’re wondering what’s in it, you’re in luck. The recipe is quick, simple, easy, and down below.
How To Get Started With Your Tito’s Handmade Vodka Azalea Cocktail
-Pour 2 oz Tito’s Vodka, 2 oz pineapple juice, 1 oz lemon juice (not lemonade) and a spoonful of grenadine into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
-Shake, shake, shake, then pour through a strainer into a tall glass filled halfway with rocks.
Done.
-Note: A lemon garnish on your Azalea is lovely. Just don’t use actual azalea leaves — they’re highly toxic.
