Queen of Cocktails Meets the King of Rock and Roll

Elvis Presley cocktail recipe- a convergence of forces. Memphis Tennessee in the mid 1950’s. The blues & gospel, Country western and hillbilly, blacks and whites: they all came together to give birth to rock and roll music. The man through which all of these energies flowed, and electrified the world was the King- Elvis Presley.

Thirty five years after his passing, the world remembers the legend of Elvis Presley. In celebration of the convergence and joining of styles and people, I present the Elvis Presley Cocktail. The queen of cocktails, Bloody Mary, meets the King of Rock and roll- Elvis!

Elvis had an appetite for life.  he also had an appetite for delicious food and drink.  This Elvis Presley cocktail is a blending of some of the King’s favorites.

Start out with a nice Tennessee whiskey.  That’s right, whiskey! A few days in advance, cut up a banana and place in a one quart Mason jar, along with a handful of roasted peanuts in the shell.  Fill the jar with whiskey, cover and let sit for three to five days.
