We're adopting a southern recipe this week: the Texas Tea. Okay, the origins probably do not lie in the area of Texas as this is yet another "tea" style recipe that no doubt branched off of the Long Island Iced Tea. The big difference in this cocktail is the inclusion of Bourbon as a spirit. Bourbon brings its own flavor and finish to the drink making this a cocktail all its own.

You don't have to be from Texas to enjoy the potent flavors of the Texas Tea Recipe.

The Red Devil is a potent little cocktail of red proportions, sweet taste and alcoholic fire. This is a big boy, we're putting it into the tiki god head, the glasses you can buy at AwesomeDrinks.com. While this isn't truely a "tiki" style cocktail (not as much fruit as we'd expect and no rums), it fits the style and mood of the polynesian cocktail.

If you've been looking for a new sloe gin recipe, this cocktail includes it. Now we're itching for more sloe gin cocktails again, might have to see what we can do about that!
