Some Fridays we just like to get stupid, we're getting stupid today. The Graveyard Cocktail has more ingredients than it needs for the purpose but it's just not a crazy episode unless we fill the table with spirits. From vodka, gin, tequila, scotch, bourbon, triple sec, beers, you name it this cocktail will exercise the broad depths of your alcohol collection.

But, yes, it's stupid to attempt this "trick."

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.
