Rex’s Lemonade AKA King’s Lemonade

I can’t believe it is Wednesday already. The hangover from the weekend just past and now it is cocktail Wednesday. This week I am featuring my favorite drink. Rex’s Lemonade. It is a take on Lynchburg Lemonade but it uses the most regal brand of whiskey, Crown. The name itself exudes royal acclaim. So let’s get to drinking.

Topped with not one but two cherries emphasizes the royal nature of this drink.

Fill a collins or rocks glass with ice. Use the cup that you have available, actually it doesn’t really matter. If it were up to me, I would always make drinks in a pint glass. That way you don’t have to get so many refills.

Next add the Crown, Sour, Triple Sec and lemonade. Stir thoroughly.

Garnish with not one but two cherries and you have a drink fit for a Rex.
