Best Drinks – Ohio
Boozy Buckeye is my cocktail of choice to share with you. I am not sure how boozy a buckeye can get but this drink will warm you up from head to toe.
1. Create hot chocolate per instructions on package. Pour made hot chocolate into large mugs. Add 2 ounces Coconut rum, 2 ounces Kahlua.
2. Stir well. Add 1 teaspoon melted peanut butter and top with whipped cream. Cheers to your amazing Boozy Buckeye!
3. This drink is a great warm up while attending tailgate parties at Ohio State football games. To learn about game schedules and ticket prices visit www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com or click here.
Peanut Butter Buckeye combines chocolate and peanut butter to create an amazing Ohio themed drink. Buckeyes? Peanut Butter? Not sure of the connection but I am sure this is a best drink!
1. Fill shaker with ice. Add 2 ounces vodka, 1 ounce melted peanut butter and 1 ounce chocolate syrup. Cover and shake until shaker becomes frosty and most of the ice has melted.
2. Strain ingredients into chilled martini glass. Add more chocolate to taste.
3. Looking for some history to go with your Boozy Buckeye? Ye Olde Trail Tavern is located in Yellow Springs. It is the oldest tavern in Ohio. Built in 1827 it has been serving food and drinks ever since. To view their current daily specials visit www.oldetrailtavern.com or click here.
