The Ollie

2 oz vodka
1 oz white rum
1 oz tequila blanco
lemonade


Serve in a tall glass with lemonade over a little ice. Drink like a tequila slammer, holding a slice of lemon between your thumb and forefinger of one hand, a pinch of salt resting on the back of the same hand. Lick up the salt, down the drink in one and then bite the slice of lemon.


Submitted byHenry Baker, Cambridge, England
A friend, Ollie, went to the bar at the Hopbine, a pub in Cambridge, England and asked the barman to mix him a drink based on vodka. He was given the above concoction, and in a drunken state I persuaded him to drink it like a tequila slammer. The results were amazing - an excellent tasting drink that gives you the rush of a lifetime - it's now a favourite of ours. And, quite appropriately, named after the first to try one.
