Everything is bigger in Texas, and while this is just a small cocktail, it packs a big punch.

Deep Eddy Peach Vodka, distilled in Dripping Springs, Texas, is sweet and juicy like a ripe peach. Campari adds rich, herbal flavors and the pomegranate and lemon juice give the drink a sweet and sour kick.
