Everyone seems to know the signature drink of the Kentucky Derby is the Mint Julep. But did you know the Belmont Stakes has its own cocktail too?  No? Perhaps that’s because the recipe was too complex.  Last year, while covering the the triple crown race with Correspondent Laura Ingle we had to keep triple checking the ingredients: a shot of this, a jigger of that…
This year it was  pared down to just three ingredients: bourbon, lemonade and pomegranate juice … making the “Breeze” … well, a breeze! Celebrity chef and mixologist John Ashton showed Senior Correspondent Rick Leventhal how to make them on Saturday. It’s pretty much a third of each.  So catch a “Breeze” while relaxing this summer at the racetrack!
