Thirsty Thursday - Firefly "Sweet Tea" Vodka and Lemonade

via
I am a southern girl who has spent my entire adult life in the land of the yankees...but it doesn't take me long when I get back down south to start saying "y'all" and hankering for some good old southern food and sweet tea.
 
(I definitely ate more grits, barbeque and pimiento cheese than I should have on this trip!)

When you infuse that sweet tea with vodka, like Firefly has done and mix it with some freshly made lemonade, you get my idea of a perfect drink. At Ashley's wedding, they served it in mason jars with a brightly colored straws - what could be better sitting on a porch as the sun sets over the river in the low country of South Carolina.

Firefly "Sweet Tea" Vodka is distilled on Wadmalaw Island,
South Carolina. It is the world’s first hand-crafted sweet tea flavored vodka. Keeping true to its Southern roots, Firefly is distilled four times, infused with tea grown on a plantation five miles from the distillery and blended with real Louisiana sugar cane.

Whether you call them Arnold Palmers, John Dalys, Mason Dixons or Sweet Home Bama Jammers, the taste of this drink will instantly transport you to a rocking chair on a wide porch anywhere down south. But be careful...they go down easy!
