Kick off the Memorial Day weekend with the Red, White & Booze cocktail! This multi layered cocktail is not only impressive, but also delicious. With the flavors of strawberry (red layer), lemon coconut (white layer) and orange (blue layer) this patriotic cocktail will start the weekend off right. I used Armen’s Barrels Florena Diamond Organic Vodka for this cocktail, and it is excellent. Armenian crafted with soul in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, this high-quality vodka is made with organic yellow corn, distilled 6 times and filtered through coconut shell activated carbon. It is exceptionally clean with a natural sweetness. Cheers!
