10 Minute Tailgate: Georgia Tech
Pimento Cheese Sandwiches and Azaleas
This week, I'm paying tribute to the Peach State. Not just the state, but specifically the Masters. Since this is the Hokies second trip to Atlanta this year, and the first was not that pleasant of an experience, we will focus on a "tradition unlike any other".
The Pimento Cheese recipe is not exactly the same as they serve in Augusta, but its pretty delicious and a great treat to serve not only at this game, but anytime! The Azalea is an Augusta cocktail that is essentially an adult Cherry Lemonade.
Enjoy both as the Hokies prepare to battle the Yellow Jackets in Atlanta!
