Friday Night Cocktail-Bay Breeze


Back in May, I posted a drink called the Hawaiian Sea Breeze, which the description compared to a Bay Breeze.  When I posted that, I had not yet had a Bay Breeze.  It is now one of my favorite cocktails.

There are two major differences in the drinks.  A Bay Breeze is a "tall drink," meaning it is too big for a martini glass, and it has Peach Schnapps.  Between the two, I vote for the Bay Breeze.

To make it, pour 1 and 1/3 ounces of vodka, 2/3 ounces of Peach Schnapps, 3 and 1/2 ounces of cranberry juice, and 1 and 2/3 ounces of pineapple juice into a shaker full of ice.  Shake and strain it into a highball glass filled with ice.  Actually, I used an old fashioned glass.  Garnish with a wedge of lime and serve with a straw.  Enjoy!!!
