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:
- Pour the Southern Comfort and lime juice into a collins glass filled with ice.
- Fill with cranberry juice.
- Garnish with a lime wedge.
