Alan's Tears Cocktail
Inspired by Alan's inability to handle hot peppery drinks, this spicy, sweet, citrusy cocktail is a featured drink here at the Lakehouse. We serve them up all summer long for drinks on the deck. Use as little or as much fresh hot pepper to suit your, or your guests, taste. They'll be a popular drink at your house too!

Notes
The amount and type of hot peppers you use will depend on the heat of your peppers and the tolerance of your tastebuds!
