Drink Up!

1 1/2 ounces Jack Daniel's Tennessee whiskey

1 1/2 ounces sweet and sour mix

1 1/2 ounces Triple Sec

6 ounces Sprite

My gang and I have been praying for an early summer. Last week spring officially began, but the sub-zero winds aren't convincing me. As Billy Gilman said, "I've Got To Make It To Summer," but it's tough. In honor of the sun we're eagerly anticipating, I give you the Country Boy. I find singing "Hell Yeah" and wearing my "Red High Heels" a therapeutic way to let out my summerless frustrations. Or you could whip up this summery treat because "Chicks Dig It." Don't get me or Brad Paisley wrong, you don't need "Alcohol" to have fun, but this drink will warm you up a bit. It might only be in the 50s and 60s through April, but we can always hope. The Country Boy is quick, easy, and delicious so "Let's Get Drunk And Be Somebody!" Fill a glass with ice, add all the ingredients, stir, and garnish with lemon slices. If you're entertaining, grab a pitcher, quadruple the recipe, relax, and let the "Six-Pack Summer" roll. One sip of this and you'll be saying, "I like it, I love it, I want some more of it!" "Ladies Love Country Boys," but if you're scared of the Triple Sec or don't have any sweet and sour mix, try 1 1/2 ounces Jack Daniels, 6 ounces of lemonade, 3 ounces of Sprite. If you're not a Whiskey Girl, try that with Bacardi Superior. Thanks to Juju, Doodles, and the Power Hour Crew for helping rediscover my love of country. It's going to be another "Flip Flop Summer" so grab a Country Boy and drink up!
