Luck Be A Lady - Friday's 5 o'clock Wet Your Whistle Call!





How very lucky to be a woman we are and today should not be any different. Friday the 13th may be unlucky for some but not in my house. 13 has always been a lucky number for us and a very good reason to celebrate, especially when it falls on Friday. The color orange is often referred to as the "social" color in feng shui energy and is said to create and promote lively conversations and good times. Change your luck with this fresh and frisky citrus libation!

Ingredients:

1 oz apple brandy
1 oz Vodka
1 oz orange liqueur ( like Gran Marnier)
Splash of fresh squeezed orange juice
Dash orange bitters

Remove the zest from the orange and mix with granulated sugar and place on a small dish. Run orange wedge around edge of glass to moisten and dip the rim the glass with the orange sugar to coat. Squeeze the orange juice after the zest has been removed.
