Masters Morning Mimosa

HAPPY MASTERS WEEK ONE AND ALL!  As you read this, Mike and I are heading into the gates on Washington Road for the first practice round of 2017.  Last time we went to The Masters, it was a competition day, so no cameras allowed.  Today, I cannot wait to take tons of photos and share them with y'all later this week!

It's also my half birthday, so there are many reasons to celebrate.  I have the most delicious cocktail to share with y'all that I made for the first time during last year's tournament.  Obviously, watching golf in the morning is the perfect excuse to start drinking early, so I took my favorite morning drink (the almighty mimosa) and added a little Georgia Peach flair to it, since the Masters does take place in Augusta, Georgia, after all.
Ingredients:
- 2 ounces of peach vodka
- 2 ounces of triple sec or peach schnapps (depending if you want more peach or orange flavor in your drink)
- 4 ounces of orange juice
- 1 scoop of peach ice cream
- champagne 
Directions:
1. In a cup, combine the vodka, triple sec or peach schnapps (or both - go crazy!), and orange juice.  Stir well.
2. Top with the scoop of ice cream.
3. Fill the cup up to the brim with champagne.  
There you have it!  Anyone else throwing a green and azalea-themed party this weekend?  If so, I'll be sharing tons of ideas for you on Friday!

I don't follow golf but occasionally we will have it on the TV...But I didn't realize you couldn't take pics anytime you wanted when watching a professional game? Interesting...
