Mmm, Super Bowl Cocktails!! Let’s start this off by saying, I’m a Pats fan. Yes, the New England Patriots, baby. You can love ’em or hate ’em but I’m all about the Brady, Gronk and Edelman … Sadly, the Pats aren’t playing in Super Bowl 50 but I still wanted to share some fun Super Bowl Cocktails – and, I’m sharing some for each team since I’m not biased – well, since I’m very nice because, yeah, the Pats did lose the AFC Championship to the Broncos so … Keep Pounding Panthers!
PS: Looking for Valentine’s Day Cocktails? I’ve got some special recipes coming your way featuring Zodiac Black Cherry Vodka! Check back later this week!
Nancy Foster at SheKnows as put together the ultimate recipe for Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos inspired cocktails, here.
Carolina Panthers Cocktails
There are so many fun Panthers Cocktails to make thanks, largely to the pretty blue color that is easily accomplished with Blue Curaco liquor. I love this recipe for a Blue Crystal Cocktail from A Beautiful Mess, pictured above.
Cam Colada
2 oz coconut rum
1 1/2 oz Blue Curacao liqueur
6 oz pineapple juice
Blend, pour over ice. Garnish with a cherry and a lime wedge!
Carolina Blue Iced Tea
Combining the traditional Long Island beverage with the Carolina classic of Sweet Tea, this Blue Iced Tea tutorial from Tipsy Bartender is delicious.
