Going to and from The Honda Classic it's hard not to want to stop at one of the restaurants located right out the gates of PGA National Resort & Spa.
Several of the mixologists have come up with very clever cocktails. Tennette Shumaker at The Cooper is really getting into the golfing spirit; with golf ball themed ice and tees to garnish three luxardo cherries. Her team has developed a thirst quencher drink, light and refreshing (perfect for long days out in the sun) called 'Pin High.' This one is pretty easy to make at home (see video above). $2 from the sale of each drink is being donated to the Children’s Healthcare Charity, Inc.
Kabuki Sushi-Thai-Tapas has three drinks at the top of the leaderboard. The Palmer Punch has Bacardi rum to the classic Arnold Palmer combination of lemonade and iced tea. The Floridian and the PGA Spritz cover those looking for vodka and gin-based beverages. Each signature spirit is $12.
The Cran Mulligan Mule ($9) at Prosecco Café is a cranberry-infused vodka, spicy ginger beer, and cranberry and lime juices, with muddled cranberries and mint leaves, comes served over ice in a copper mug.
The 19th Hole ($12) at Spoto’s Oyster Bar. This master of margaritas combines Don Julio Añejo Tequila, Cointreau, and sour mix, and its served with a salted rim.
