Sex on the Beach Cocktail Recipe 

Thanks! They are the older ones too! Hopefully I keep getting the videos better and get more to go viral! :)

..and it's still handing out hangovers!! 🤣🤣

Awesome stuff!! Let me know if you have any requests!

I think I need to make more bright colored cocktails!! :)

I'm mixologist too

Is it wrong that I can picture you rollerblading down the beachside, Motley Crue on your walkman, and a Sex on the beach in your hand?! :)

@@CocktailCards Nope. I am good with all of that but I suck at rollerblading

@@boozeontherocks Well that's what the drink is for!

Naw you probably didn't hear anything! :)

they didn't.lol

No, let’s hear it again 😂

Hear what? 🤨

Thank you! Cheers!

Thanks!!

I would definitely stir it for the best tasting drink

Absolutely! Tequila and orange juice go very well together, so this cocktail works great with Tequila!

Hey Harold! I believe this was a 15 or 16 ounce in this video.

I have it's 😋 delicious

subtle.. but effective!

Thank you!! :)

Yup! Pretty much any liqueur store should have it. There should be a flavored alcohol section, and should be in there!

@@CocktailCards thank you for replying

You're welcome!

Didn't you watch the video?.. He said you can get it at any package store.

Great question! When Ted Pizio created this cocktail it wasn't layered at all from the cocktail books I read. Only when TGIF picked up the drink and started making it popular did they start to layer the drink. However, TGIF's version is one that was found in a cocktail book that preceeds Teds version by 5 years. But TGIFs version is super sweet and I'm not a fan, and I don't think most people expect that version (midori, chamboard, ect..) So it has become custom now to make Ted's version that he made for the Peach Schanpps competition but ALSO layer it like TGIF did, which had the dark color on the bottom. As far as the name... Ted (bartender in florida) is on record saying two things bring people to Florida (sex and beaches) and that was the only inspiration behind the name. Like all things rumors and lore like to go around iconic drinks and sex (red) and beach (yellow) never accounts for the name according to him. But at the end of the day, it's a fun play on it and you can make it however you like, and I like it both ways! In general people expect the layers like TGIF made it, so that's why I decided to do it that way, but totally up to you! Cheers!

@@CocktailCards Whoa! That's fascinating. Thanks for the detailed answer. Great video overall!

Thanks so much!

Yea this drink has been changed a lot! Originally it was made in Florida and that recipe used grenadine. Then it became very popular in the 80's being on the TGI Fridays menu and that version was made with Chambord. At the time most bars did not have Chambord, so the version that started spreading across the world was being made with cranberry juice since that was easier for bars to get. So your hotel, your coworker, and this version are all correct! They are all delicious as the drink is very simple. But 95% of the time if you order one at a bar you will get it with cranberry. Cheers!

Hey Michael, great points! First of all, this isn't my favorite drink, no matter how it's made. I don't like to fake like I enjoy something, but I try my best to explain it, because I know so many people who love the drink! And you're totally right about how the drink is presented, if I had it my way, the whole thing would be shaken 100% of the time! But unfortunately, guests lose their minds when I do that, and often return the drink, I explained in another comment, ill copy it here: "When Ted Pizio created this cocktail it wasn't layered at all from the cocktail books I read.

" So I still make it this way, as it makes most people happy, but your right ... hope they stir it for best results!! 👍

Nope
