Ah - Summer in the Northeast....beautiful sunny days, tank tops and fireflies at night, evenings sleeping with all the windows open and only a sheet on top of you...
Not this year! We've been on the East Coast since June 17 and have barely seen the sun poke through the clouds. Every day brings a new set of showers, or out and out rain, and the fireflies are still hibernating. What's a person to do? Beckon the summer gods with an offering of Southsides!
My husband can make a killer Southside. Developed by trial and error over the years, with Alison, Bebe and Suzanne as faithful taste-testers, his recipe is so basic and easy, you can whip them up in no time flat.
Tom's Southsides
1 can frozen concentrated limeade
1/4 cup mint, shredded
Vodka (pick your favorite poison)
soda water
ice
Stir limeade concentrate with mint in a small pitcher. Fill highball glass with ice. Add a jigger of vodka and a splash of soda water. Top with limeade and mint mixture and stir.
Drink up and send some sunshine our way!
