For my LUPEC meeting, my co hostess and I offered a Triple Crown of cocktails.
El Derby Ahumado, a smoky reimagining of the Mint Julip,
Black-Eyed Susan, official drink of the Preakness Stakes,
and the The Belmont Jewel of 2011
We also crafted mums, or horse ribbons, for our upcoming book launch.
The ribbons feature our cocktail name.
A friend had found a box of horse ribbons at an estate sale which made the perfect decor.
