Smashley

Ryan arranged a night out with friends for my birthday.  Stud, that man is, I tell ya. 


And these girls, they fill me right up.



AND...................

Ladies and Gentleman, meet Smashley.

Smashley, meet the people.....



Sumo  served a drink by this name, and it added a solid 7 years to my life.  Seriously, such an honor to just shake its hand, let alone make one myself.  But that didn't stop the trying - and although I googled high and low under:

smashley
life changer
get in my belly
I'll never touch a different glass again
I think I've just glimpsed heaven

......no luck.  Turns out it's signature to that restaurant.
So I got with Sumo and found out the ingredients.  And I'm here to tell you, friends...you could put a bow on it.  This here drink is the bomb diggity. 

Fill a pint glass with chunk ice.
Pour over it:

3 oz. vodka
3 oz. pineapple juice
3 oz. 7 up
the squeeze of 1/2 a lemon
6 slices of fresh jalepeno (no seeds!)

Stir. 
Sip. 
Be changed.

You. Are. Welcome.

This pic is pre-Smashley, I promise...But well, when it's your birthday, and you need a handful of a good friend, you just go on take yourself one!
