The Lady Olive

If you’ve read my About Me section then you know that somehow, in my spaghetti scented youth, I developed a taste for the finer things. Now, I hope this doesn’t throw you off. I appreciate hazelnut creamer and a burger from Jack in the Box more that I’d like you to know (the Sourdough Jack is best burger money can buy!) However, when something is unique, made with passion and oh yeah, tastes fantastic, well, I can get a little obsessed.

I Yelped about 5Church after my first meal there about a year ago, shortly after it opened.  If you are local, I can’t recommend this restaurant enough. Get the lamb burger, you won’t regret it.

Anyway, my favorite drink on their menu is without question The Viper: Patron Silver, Orange liqueur, Lime Juice, Cucumber Water and a dash of Cayenne Pepper.  A couple of those and you are ready to trip on your pants in the parking garage for a night out on the town.

Please forgive me for the lack of cucumber water in this recipe, but if you’re looking for a quick fix with ingredients you most likely already have, then here you go friends.

It’s Wednesday after all, and that’s reason enough for a cocktail.

Rub a slice of lemon or lime around the rim of your glass and salt (OPTIONAL)

Serve with a splash of club soda if you wish and a sprinkle of Cayenne Pepper (NOT OPTIONAL)

Cheers to the Viper-Wannabe!

Thanks for stopping by!
