Woo Woo

Yes, this is a real cocktail. The name is more evocative of the cheers that certain women (Woo girls) make when they are drunk. I don't know if that is where the name comes from, but when a woman orders this drink and then you hear "Woo!" shouted across the bar, you can put two and two together.

I apologize for snapping pictures at the bar, as they don't make for the best lighting or presentation, but I'm spending so much time at work that it leaves me little time to mix at home.

The Woo Woo is like a Sex On The Beach fail--someone forgot to get orange juice. People like it nonetheless. Hey, when given the option of drinking each of the ingredients separately, this simple cocktail still wins out, which is all that is asked of a drink recipe.

• 2 oz. vodka
• 2 oz. peach schnapps
• 3 oz. cranberry juice

Combine all ingredients in a highball glass with ice and stir.
