Elle's Kitchen: Five Oh


Recently, a friend on facebook posted that
she was enjoying pineapple screwdrivers at
a beach house in Denmark. That made me
think about the last time I had a screwdriver.
I bet it has been over 30 years, I was at a
wedding and someone asked what I wanted
from the bar, so I said, "a screwdriver"
because I didn't know what else to say.
At first it tasted good but after awhile all
that orange juice just didn't agree with me.
But when I thought about making a screwdriver
with pineapple juice ~ that sounded much
more appealing. I had to go buy the vodka
since generally the hardest thing we have around
here is root beer. To make it, add some vodka
to a glass of pineapple juice and add ice.
Delicious and refreshing!
We named it Five Oh! in a nod to our pineapple
growing state Hawaii.
Enjoy!
