Peter Rabbit Cocktail Recipe

Recently, I went on a #BloggersGo trip with my best gal pals. One of the restaurants we dined at was Searsuckers (review post upcoming). Now at Searsuckers, I had the best cocktail I have ever had the pleasure of sipping on. It was perfect, refreshing, and oh so hard to duplicate; but after a search on the internet I finally managed it. Now, the main purpose of this post is to highlight my favorite Touch products by Good Cook. I figured since I used three different ones in just making this tasty beverage, this would be the perfect avenue to do so. Since the recipe I used called for lemon zest, I used the Citrus Zester to make my job easier.

I also needed to wash the fresh basil since I picked it right off the plant. Pretty fresh, but that means pretty dirty. What an easy job when I used the 6″ Strainer to clean the leaves in the running water.

I also had to squeeze fresh lemons to make the basil lemonade, but how would I know when I reached 1 cup? Yup! You got it! Good Cook has the “Measure From Above” Cup Measuring Cup which makes measuring liquids a breeze! No more bending down eyeing whether or not you have made the mark.

Are you ready for the recipe? You bet you are…now this will take some patience, but I promise you…The Peter Rabbit Cocktail recipe is totally worth it! Now the recipe below calls for Pimms #1 which my local grocer or liquor store doesn’t carry. I am pleased to present how to make Pimms #1 at home: How to make Pimms #1

  17. I really like the Ceramic Pie Plate, 9″- Red. Reminds me of the ones my grandma used to have.

  23. Followed on Pinterest……..….… emscout9…………… ………..( Paol Trenny … emscout9 at Hotmail dot com)

  41. I really like the Pancake Kit. I love making breakfast pancakes for my granddaughters 2 times a week. It would be fun using this!

  49. The 7″ Santoku Knife is definitely my favorite product out of everything! I need one in my kitchen desperately! :):)

  69. I love the Nonstick Chef’s Knife, 5″
    Item #18808

    thank you for the awesome giveaway!

  71. I had the point counter ready to get the points from entering the Good Cooks Treasure Hunt but it was already over. Please deduct the points I got from that, as I didn’t do what was necessary to get them. Sorry about that.

  72. I was looking for a cake turntable but didn’t find one, the Ceramic 8 Piece Bake Set in red caught my eye. I could use all those pieces.

  83. It is extremely difficult to decide. I was looking at the bakeware set or maybe the cutlery set. However, I do need a meat thermometer.

  102. The pizza stone is something I’ve always wanted. I’m curious about how well they work.

  123. I love their lettuce knife. I let my 6yo niece help me in the kitchen – she loves to slice stuff like lettuce, zucchini and basil using it.

  147. I used to have an old dial face scale that was my grandmother’s. While cleaning the kitchen one
    cold winters day, I knocked it off my prep table and broke the weighing pan. I’ve been meaning to replace it–but it just has not been in budget. I would truly appreciate the 11lb Digital Food Scale. I use a scale at work and it makes baking so much easier.

  155. Hard to choose a favorite, but I think I’d have to go with the Kitchen Shears with Herb Stripper.

  171. Sounds like an interesting cocktail! I love the Measure From Above cup concept! I definitely need one of those!
