Fizzy Trix Vodka

Enjoy this delicious Fizzy Vodka with Trix Cereal.  For adults only! 

Last week I was invited to a Hello Cereal Lovers event hosted by General Mills serving creations by Justin Warner.    As soon as I arrived and started to taste all these amazing cereal dishes my mind started to wonder quickly.   I usually think of Cereal as something I splash milk on and call it a day, or occasionally bake cookies and make granola bars with. But savory?  I never thought of cereal as savory but that has all changed.  By thinking out of the (cereal) box I can totally see  how cereal can be incorporated into dinner dishes and you will see a few recipes in the upcoming weeks as I try them out.   While at the event I had one amazing rotini pasta dish and one extra delicious split pea soup – both had cereal in it. I hope you’re intrigued by this, because you’re soon to be hungry!

As soon as I got to the event I was greeted with smiles, then quickly offered a Fizzy Trix drink. Let me tell you a few things:
I accepted this drink because all I heard was “Trix”.
I don’t drink Vodka.
I started to drink it and quickly felt my cheeks become flushed.
I found a recipe book at a nearby table and quickly realized I was drinking Vodka.
I really enjoyed this Fizzy Vodka Trix drink.  Alot.
I quickly started to dance on tables.
They asked me to leave.

Ok the last 2 things aren’t true.  In fact I was offered another Fizzy Trix drink but declined because I have a fear with alcohol that I will become that stranger on the subway home.    Random:  Once on the way home Matthew and I were sitting on the subway, and a intoxicated man placed his hand on Matthew’s thigh and quickly stroked very high up.  Matthew removed his hand. I giggled crazily. The man awoke embarrassed, confused, and then passed out again.  It was a highlight of my year.

So for you Fizzy Drink and Cereal lovers out there, I think you’re going to love this recipe.  Enjoy!
