NCAA Cocktails: Seminoles vs Tigers

Google+ Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

PrintTonights the night of the big game. Florida State Seminoles take on the Auburn Tigers in one of the most talked about match-ups in recent history. The SEC has practically owned the BCS for the past decade, meanwhile the Seminoles have been damn near invincible this season.  Like the Superbowl, the title game is a great way to spend time amongst your fellow Nole/Tiger fans, and an even better excuse to drink if you aren’t a fan of either. Throw back a few drinks, munch on some finger foods and most importantly, remember there’s always next year. Below we’ve shared two cocktail recipes, one for each team tonight. Let us know what you think!

Eye of the Tiger Cocktail (Auburn Tiger Cocktail)

  • 1 oz light rum
  • 1 oz Malibu
  • 1 oz cranberry juice
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • 1 oz orange juice
  • 1 oz simple syrup
  • ½ oz dark rum (Floated on top)

Combine all ingredients saving the dark rum for last, and float on top. 

The Seminole Sling (Florida State Seminole Cocktail)

  • 1 oz bourbon
  • ¾ oz Cointreau
  • ½ oz Cranberry Juice
  • ½ oz fresh lime juice

Shake with ice; strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with orange.

Seminole fans, Tiger Fans, let us know what you thought of our drinks, and if you’ve got some suggestions, send us an email or shoot us a message on social media. Enjoy the game,

Cheers!
