The Swedish Flying Monkey

Here is another in a series 

of our weekly Saturday Sippers! posts.

What do you get when you combine Swedish vodka, Swedish fish and a Lilly Pulitzer backdrop with monkeys on it?  A Swedish Flying Monkey, of course! Most flying monkey cocktails include some sort of banana flavor in it, but this drink is completely sans banana. There's a double Swedish nod with Swedish fish gummy candies, and Swedish Absolut vodka. Yaa, Yaa. This Saturday Sipper will have you swinging from tree to tree by the third sip. 

THE SWEDISH FLYING MONKEY

1 oz lemon Absolut vodka
1/2 oz blue curaçao liqueur
1/2 cup blue Gatorade light
 1/4 cup club soda

one wedge of lemon

Makes two swinging cocktails!

Combine first four ingredients and pour into two glasses filled with ice and a few Swedish fish. Add lemon wedge on rim of glass and start swinging.
