Last summer, my friends and I first made this cocktail. And then we proceeded to drink it all summer long. Every summer get together became an opportunity to drink this drink. It is just what summer should taste like.

I am happy to introduce to you, Sex Goat, or a Sesso Capra if you’re classy. The first time we came up with this drink was at a party. After everyone had their first, we said, this is a keeper. What should we call it? And then we proceeded to drink a few more. You know how you are talking to someone, and across the room someone is having another conversation that you only hear snippets of? Well, from across the room, I thought I heard a friend say “sex goat”. I had to stop what I was doing and ask, “did you just say sex goat?” Of course, that was nothing at all like what had been said, but the name stuck and we now call this a sex goat. 

A month or so later, I was going home to visit family and bringing along friends to enjoy summer in Arkansas. We really wanted to drink this drink with the family, but I told them that I was not going to tell my parents that they were drinking Sex Goat. (I’m sorry mom. The cat is out of the bag now!) So, I thought, I bet this would sound much classier in another language. And so, the Sesso Capra was born. That is Italian for Sex Goat.

I mean really, doesn’t this drink look classy enough to be a Sesso Capra? Try this out this summer. It is just the perfect drink for hanging out on a boat, relaxing in your yard, and just being among friends. Classy friends.
