Recipe of the Month... June: Kings Choice!

(Perfect Pair Series)

June is a very special month as we all know that Father’s day is this month. So often we take for granted the men who step outside of their responsibility and go above and beyond the call of fatherhood and actually become great Dads!!! More often we forget those men who are not yet fathers but extend their hand to help build the empire, because it’s true what they say…It take a village to raise a child. We want to pay homage to the uncles, brothers, mentors and community leaders as well. So this month we honor them as the Royalty they are and make a meal properly fit for not just Great Father’s but Great Kings!

This months “Perfect Pair” is the K. Walker. This drink is simple in ingredients, smooth in taste, strong in stature and Undoubtedly Delicious in every aspect. It was created by a Great King Khaliel Walker who opened up his cabinet one day only to find a few ingredients, he then opened up his mind and decided to create instead of complain. That creation was the K. Walker and the beginning of a movement. Being an adventurous soul I tried the K. Walker and immediately fell in love. I must say people it is the most fitting crown for any Kings meal!
