I am sharing an easy appetizer that only has 3 ingredients which will keep you out of the kitchen. When your entertaining you should have easy recipes that are crowd pleasers like this one!

The Transfusion

Don’t ask me why this drink is so popular with golfers. I always thought golfers drank beer and scotch, but they also enjoy drinking the Transfusion.

Sip & Share: Transfusion cocktail

The Transfusion cocktail is a golf club standard made with vodka, ginger ale, grape juice, and lime juice. It’s so refreshing, delicious, potent enough to numb the pain of a double bogey, and in my case getting a 9 on a hole. I also love serving it at home. Sammy likes her mocktail version because I leave out the vodka!

Sip & Share: Ingredients for the Transfusion

Ingredients:

  • 2 ½ ounces* vodka
  • 2 ounces Concord grape juice
  • ½ ounce lime juice
  • 4 ounces ginger ale
  • Ice, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Add the vodka, Concord grape juice, and lime juice to an ice-filled highball glass and stir.
