Sex on the Beach Recipe

The history of the Sex on the Beach cocktail is a little hazy but the most cited story dates to 1987 when a company call National Distribution began selling peach schnapps, which was new to America at the time. The company came up with a contest in Ft Lauderdale, Florida, that they would pay the bar who sold the most peach schnapps $1000 and the bartender who was responsible for the most sales $100. Ted Pizio, of Confetti's bar in Florida, is said to have come up with the drink for the competition and gave it its name based on what he considered to be the two main attractions of Spring Break in Florida!
