Honky Tonk Badonkadonk (original source)
Ingredients:
1 1⁄2 oz Cointreau liqueur
1⁄2 oz calvados
1 oz vanilla vodka
1 dash (1/8 tsp) cinnamon
How To:

They nonalcoholic ingredients could be found at your local grocery store if you can't find them at the liquor store. Townsquare Media and KIXS 108 do not condone underage drinking and encourage you to drink responsibly. Have a safe and fun weekend!
