My husband and I are very fortunate to have a pair of best friends that are there for any event. Whether it’s hosting a holiday with family and hoping for some sanity, moving to a new house and needing some extra 
hands, or attending a child’s sporting event and wanting a cheering squad, they are there.
This past weekend our eldest competed in a tri-county cross country meet. Of course, our best friends were in attendance with us. To cap off our day, they joined us and two of our kids at home. Having a little fun with the big sporting event, I created a Tri-Tini for the adults. (The kids mixed juices, seltzer, and grenandine to make their own special beverages.) Named the Tri-Tini to acknowledge both the event and the three ingredients with alcohol, this drink was tasty.
What better way to end a day with such great friends than to have a drink and enjoy their company?
The Tri-Tini
2 ounces blue curacao
1 ounce banana liqueur
