Masters Azalea Cocktail

A bright pink Masters cocktail with citrus and pineapple, offered here in both classic and quick Augusta versions.

Ingredients

Classic Masters Azalea

• 2 oz vodka, or gin
• 2 oz pineapple juice
• 1 oz fresh lemon juice
• ½ oz grenadine, adjusted to taste
• Ice
• Lemon slice and maraschino cherry, for garnish

Quick Augusta Version

• 1¼ oz vodka
• 5 oz lemonade
• ½ oz grenadine
• Ice
• Orange slice and cherry, for garnish

Instructions

Classic Masters Azalea

1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the vodka, pineapple juice, lemon juice, and grenadine.
2. Shake vigorously until well chilled.
3. Strain into a glass filled with fresh ice.
4. Garnish with a lemon slice and maraschino cherry.

Quick Augusta Version

1. Stir the vodka and lemonade together in a glass with ice.
2. Slowly pour in the grenadine and stir until the drink reaches the desired Azalea pink.
3. Garnish with an orange slice and cherry.

Notes

• Add grenadine gradually for a bright floral pink rather than a deep red.
• For a mocktail, omit the vodka and increase the lemonade or pineapple juice.
• Do not use real azaleas as a garnish; they are toxic to humans and pets. Use fruit or mint instead.
