SKYY Vodka: Aviation Day drink recipes

SKYY Spirits classic advertising - woman eating martini olives with man on floorFrom sun up to sun down SKYY Spirits has celebration plans covered for Aviation Day, Wednesday, Aug. 19. Aviation Day was set in motion by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939 in recognition of the achievements of Orville Wright (and his birthday of course). All aviators of flight from early times onward should be recognized for their achievements in flight that make it possible to wade through long security lines, wait through endless hours of flight delays and cancelations so we can kiss the ground we walk reminding ourselves that any safe landing is a great landing. Keep in mind how long the ride would be if it were all horse and buggy!

SKYY Spirits is an ideal brand to whip up cocktails of a curious and fun nature for the day. Their advertising campaigns through the years tease the soul while the drink recipes quench the thirst. Mix up a Sunrise Martini combining SKYY Vodka and Cabo Wabo Tequila or chill out on the SKYY Perfect Martini.  End the day with two choices for sunset; SKYY Sunset with grapefruit juice or spend your evening dreaming of the beach with SKYY Palm Beach Sunset mixing in a little amaretto flavor.
