Here in the South, we LOVE our cocktails. Every Friday we like to share a new Southern Traditional, Southern-Created or Southern-Inspired Cocktail Recipe that we know you will enjoy.
Today’s Southern Cocktail is a tasty, aged tequila-take on the popular Cosmopolitan.
Southern Cocktail #6 is Jula Hoop Cocktail
The Jula Hoop Cocktail was created at Elaine’s on Franklin in Chapel Hill, NC, by bartender Julia Hartsell, who also is a professional hula hooper (yes, really! Check out her website HERE)
