THE AVATAR
''Avatar was by far my favorite movie,'' says Lee, who is also the author of Semi-Homemade Cocktail Time. ''Even though it was intense, it's amazing how you can bond with an animated character. When they plugged Sigourney Weaver into the tree, and you're just willing her to live, it was very emotional. The white cranberry's sweeter than the red cranberry juice so that's why I use that in this blue drink. And the citrus vodka honors that beautiful tree of life.''
Recipe (makes one drink):
1 oz. citrus vodka (suggest Ketel One Citroen)
1 oz. white cranberry juice
1/2 oz. blue curaçao
1 squeeze lime juice
Ice cubes
In a cocktail shaker, combine all ingredients; cover and shake until very cold. Strain into a chilled glass.
