The Azalea Cocktail

March 30, 2018

The azaleas at Augusta National are as much a part of The Masters as the green jackets, Amen Corner, and the $1.50 pimento cheese sandwiches. They provide a stunning and colorful backdrop to the prestigious golf tournament. August National even has even named a hole on their course, No. 13, after the vibrant flower. The azaleas are in full bloom right now in Aiken, and are even more beautiful ever this year.

A short half-hour drive from Augusta National, we enjoy The Masters here at The Willcox. This year’s tournament is shaping up to be an incredibly historic week and to celebrate, we will be serving the Azalea Cocktail at our lobby bar. Come in and have a taste of this traditional Masters’ cocktail as you discuss your predictions on this year’s tournament.

If you can’t make it in, try your hand at crafting The Azalea at your home to enjoy while watching the final rounds this weekend.
