Yum Alert: The Raven Cocktail

Written by Olga

A cocktail celebrating The Baltimore Ravens. They are a football team, in case you haven’t heard.

So I don’t know if you noticed, but all across America, many citizens have been cramming themselves into bars and living rooms every weekend to watch football. This Sunday, four teams wil be competing for a crack at The Superbowl. Only two will make it. Because I don’t know much about football but still feel compelled to participate in an activity most of my friends are obsessed with, I’m going to align myself with one of those teams – The Baltimore Ravens. It’s not a completely arbitrary decision; I grew up in Baltimore. Okay, honestly, I don’t care who wins. I just want to drink with my friends and meet cute guys – and don’t you dare judge me until you can name at least three players from your favorite football team. Yeah, I thought so.

So in honor of The Ravens, here’s how you can make The Raven:

Ingredients

1 oz vodka

1 oz rum

1 oz blue curacao

1/2 oz Chambord

Directions

Pour the vodka, rum and blue curacao into a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Strain into a highball glass filled with fresh ice. Slowly pour the Chambord over the back of a bar spoon so it floats on top.
