team spirits! Olympic themed cocktails

let the games begin!

i love this! at the end of July the XXX Summer Olympics will get underway in London and  even the airline industry is gearing up for the games in a festive way. i’ve just flown on Delta & featured in their inflight magazine is a fun idea for cocktails – some of which are available on board. here are the 3 medal-themed drinks + recipes.

mix and enjoy the Olympic Games with a metallic glow!

    Love it! Now how about some Olympic inspired inflight meals??

  2. I’d like to see an American version with red, white, and blue. We’ll have to work on that at TBEX. 😉

    • i’d like to try them all but not all at once or in even in the same day! good thing the Olympics are at least a few days long 🙂

  5. Hmmm, #2 sounds pretty good, I must say…

    Keystone sounds wonderful – your enthusiasm makes me want to head there now!

  7. These are some stiff sounding drinks! I need my liquor a little more disguised. But perfect – as I think a medal is deserved for drinking something so potent. 😉

    Fun idea!
