It’s time for Happy Hour with this Ruby Red Chilton cocktail.
Baby is down for a nap and I make my way to the kitchen for a 9am cocktail. I’d say that is one heck of a way to start off the day, even if it is for testing and photography purposes only. (Wink, Wink) Maybe it is time for me to do cocktails full time, so I’d be testing out cocktails every single day. I’m sure I could gather up a few extra taste testers this way.
If you live in the Lubbock area you’ve probably heard of a Chilton. Supposedly a doctor and a country club bartender in Lubbock came up with this popular lemon cocktail. I’m taking this legendary drink one step further by adding some Deep Eddy’s Ruby Red vodka, along with the lemon juice, club soda and ice.
This just so happens to be my mother-in-laws MOST favorite beverage and I can’t wait to share this new version with her. In fact, I think it is ranking in my Top 5 drinks of all time. That’s saying a lot especially if I want to do cocktails full time. A cocktail needs to be simple to make and something that people can whip up fast when friends are over or if you need a quick fix after along day with the kiddos and a glass of wine just won’t do.
No judging. I’m always up for a good cocktail to take with me while I escape to the bathroom for at least 15 minutes of silence.
Now it’s time for you to relax a little with this Ruby Red Chilton drink.
Add salt to the rims of two cocktail glasses. Fill each glass to the top with nugget or regular ice.
Pour vodka and juice from 3 lemons to a cocktail shaker. Shake and then pour into the two glasses.
Top with club soda.

I work at said country club. We now have a restaurant called Chiltons there. We have this recipe on our cocktail list as well as with cucumber Effen vodka (VERY refreshing). But my personal favorite is with western son prickly pear vodka! SO good if you love sour patch kids. You can also add jalapenos to the cucumber or Ruby Red Chilton and its pretty tasty!
