Redhead In Bed
My new Food & Wine Magazine arrived and I found a recipe for a drink which I thought would be fun to serve guests before a dinner party or just to socialize, especially since it is strawberry season in California.
***
Ingredients:
3 pounds strawberries, hulled and coarsely chopped
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons citrus vodka
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
Ice
1/3 cup chilled Riesling
***
In a bowl, toss the strawberries with the sugar and let stand, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries release their juices, about 10 minutes.
In a blender, combine half each of the strawberries and their juices, the vodka, and the lime juice with one cup ice and puree. Pour into a pitcher. Repeat with remaining strawberries and juices, vodka and lime juice and 1 more cup of ice. Fill 10 Collins glasses half way with ice. Pour the cocktail into the glasses, top each with about 1/2 tablespoon or more of Riesling and serve. Makes 10 drinks.
