Named for the southern belle from Gone With the Wind, the Scarlet O'Hara is as genteel a drink as its namesake. The cocktail features the liqueur that is a gem of the south, Southern Comfort, which is simply mixed with cranberry juice and a dash of lime (an optional, yet preferred ingredient). The Scarlet O'Hara has, for some time, been a popular drink and is a drink bartenders should know. There is also a Rhett Butler to finish the cast of characters.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz Southern Comfort
  • dash of lime juice
  • cranberry juice
  • lime wedge for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Pour the Southern Comfort and lime juice into a collins glass filled with ice.
  2. Fill with cranberry juice.
  3. Garnish with a lime wedge.
