Well, it is official, The Kentucky Iced Tea recipe was a hit. It blew up on social media and has received a ton of views and reviews.
This week I am going back into my bag of recipes and pulling an oldie but goodie out. The Kentucky One Fourth is a nod to the original Arnold Palmer, which mixes sweet tea and lemonade. We will add two more ingredients to make it a true one-fourth.
Of course, bourbon and one extra special ingredient, blackberry juice. Blackberries have been the official fruit of Kentucky since 2004.
Once again, this recipe is for a full pitcher of tea.
