The Harper's Salty Dog



The Harper's Salty Dog

This is a nice twist on a classic Salty Dog.

Vodka
Grapefruit Juice
Orange Juice
Salt

Salt the rim of a Collins glass and add crushed ice. Add two ounces of vodka along with a 50/50 mixture of orange juice and grapefruit juice. Please note: fresh squeezed juice is always best; especially when it comes from your own backyard.

AAH...quite refreshing!

Frozen Mojitos

Wow the weather is beautiful in March! The mint in my garden is thriving and what's a girl to do but make a MOJITOS.

Frozen Mojitos

Rum
Mint
Limeade

You'll need a blender for this one. Fill your blender with ice. Add a six ounce can of Limeade, six ounces of rum and about one to two cups of mint. Blend until smooth. This is great for a group.
