Lazy Wolf



Lazy Wolf


Research and development are always fun for me, especially when one of my bartenders says, “Hey Lindsey, check out this new product we just got!” I can tell from their excitement that it’s probably going to be something really good. So when this happened yesterday, I scooted right behind the bar to check it it out and see if it was something I’d like to play with.

Todays new arrival was another Bacardi flavored rum...
Bacardi is a staple behind every bar, most offering at least four or five of their huge array of flavors (eleven flavors and counting) Some are better than others, so I wasn’t holding my breath. The newest to join the line-up are Black Razz and Wolf Berry, the later being my “muse”. The Bacardi Wolf Berry is a blueberry and wolfberry (more commonly known as goji berry) flavor blend that is fruity and floral, but not overly sweet.

I love blueberry and lemon together, so I decided a citrus flavor combo was a must. Pinnacle Vodka (also known for their huge repertoire of flavors), has a delicious line of “whipped” flavored vodkas that adds a sweet smoothness to any cocktail they are involved with.  

The Lazy Wolf is best served over ice while enjoying a relaxing evening on the deck alone, or with a pack of friends.

¾ oz Bacardi Wolf Berry Rum
¾ oz Pinnacle Whipped Key Lime Pie Vodka
1 lime wedge
10 blueberries
Club Soda

Muddle 5 or 6 blueberries with your wedge of lime in a short rocks glass. Top with ice and your remaining blueberries, then add your rum and vodka. Finish with club soda and stir.
