A couple of weeks ago I was on a golf trip through Mississippi, and after playing The Azaleas course at the Dancing Rabbit Golf Club (number 35 of the Top 100 in the US. Highly recommended.) we spent a night at the Pearl River Resort in Philadelphia. (Yes, there's Philadelphia in MS too.)
After dinner we went up to the Luna Lounge, an old-school club at the top of the resort, shaped like a moon that hangs off the roof of the building. The perfect place to drink.
Since it was late, Julie the bartender suggested their signature coffee martinis to keep the party going. And did they.
Here are the recipes for when you're looking for an after dinner drink to keep things hopping.
