Apple Barn Julep Drink

In Tennessee there is a GREAT restaurant called The Apple Barn.

Everything there is delicious.

Everything!

Once you order, the waitress brings this little cup of cold drink.

Emphasis is on little.

Because I want a big cup of this cold drink.

I want the entire pitcher of this drink on my little table.

I want to be hooked up intravenously to this drink.

I bought The Apple Barn Cookbook because it had the recipe for this drink . . .
this was way before smart-phones. . .

where I could take the book in a corner and act like I was totally interested in the book
and be all "consumed" with the incredible recipes, all the while, trying to get my smart-phone camera out so that I could snap a picture of the single recipe that I wanted,  then decided that I really didn't need the recipe book . . .

Not that I would have done that; I'm just saying I have the whole recipe book for this one recipe!

Apple Barn Julep

1 quart apple juice
1 cup pineapple juice
1 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lemon juice

Pour everything into a pitcher, mix well and chill. 

Serve to the friends you really like . . .keep the rest for yourself.

    My wife and my daughter and I went to AppleBarn restaurant and drank their Julep. We loved it. They provided a tiny paper handout of the recipe, but I lost it. Three years later (tonight), I decided to "google" to find the recipe; alas, it was not on their website. However, I came across your post. Thank you very much, I'm going to try to make the drink and surprise my family. God Bless.

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su...

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there.

It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out!

"Hosaf" (Dried Fruit Compote)

I've made reference to our trip last Summer to different European countries. My prized souvenirs are cookbooks from each country. I'm not sure, of the 4 cookbooks, which is my favorite, but I surely enjoy the one I purchased while in Greece. I'll tell the quick story: We were in an open air market in Greece, searching through antiques and junk. Along the perimeter of where we were shopping were business. In typical European fashion, outside one of the restaurants was a young man leaning against the doorframe, as if to summon customers into his restaurant. When he heard our English, he asked where we were from, as he had studied in the States when he was in school. That question led to a great conversation and he invited us into the restaurant which he and his mother owned.  We sampled all sorts of incredible foods that afternoon and when I told him that I would love to have a cookbook because of the great experience we had just had, he showed me the co...
