New summer drinks (and recipes!) at Fox RC

Posted on: April 20th, 2012 by Amy Martin 1 Comment

This weekend, the Valley is headed for triple digits and I’m pretty sure we’re all going to need something cool to quench the thirst that comes along with 100 degrees. Fox Restaurant Concept’s Master Mixologist Mat Snapp has crafted a few new, summer drinks just in time for the heat plunge. The perfect summer sip is, as Matt says, “cold, fresh and light.”  A few of his new ‘fresh and light’ drinks include the following:

For Modern Steak, he’s crafted a Tiki cocktail: the Pau Hana – the Hawaiian phrase for the first drink after a hard day’s work- ($10) combining Flora de Cana 7 year rum and Pisa Pistachio Liqueur.

At Blanco Tacos Tequila, you can enjoy Mat’s Pineapple Daly ($9) made with Skyy Vodka, house made sweet tea simple syrup and pineapple juice and the Oaxan Shandy ($9) combining Sauza Tequila, Solerno, Cilantro and Modelo Especial.

Head to the Arrogant Butcher or Culinary Dropout for the After School Special ($10) made with raspberry-infused Blanco Tequila, Ginger Agave Nectar, freshly squeezed lime juice and Model Especial.

We were lucky enough to nab the drink recipes for the After School Special, Pineapple Daly and the Pau Hana, Pineapple Daly. View the recipes here in their Summer Cocktail Cookbook and craft your own cold, fresh and light sip this weekend!

    The drinks sound amazing, but the prices seem a little high. I am also glad to see some beer recipes on there. Beer cocktails are making a big impact lately, and I am curious to see all of these beer recipes as they come up. My favorite is the Bulldog. You can barely taste the tequila, let alone the beer! Good list. Now I need to go make myself a drink!
