Triple P's

When my son was playing football at Auburn, we tailgated on a grand scale like I had never seen in my life. We were guests of friends we had met, and one of them introduced me to this delicious beverage called a Pink Panty Pulldown. She always made it in the 5 gallon ORANGE drum, of course. The recipe has been a favorite among my guests ever since. I have served it at birthday parties, bridal events, and even a baby shower "Sip and See." Annually, we attend a Wild Game Cookoff with other great Auburn friends, and I am tasked with bringing the party as the PPP girl. It is definitely a conversation piece, so get busy squeezing the lemons. That is the secret ingredient.
