0:01
- I am gonna share with y'all a drink that we serve
0:05
at Paula Deen's Family, Kitchen restaurants,
0:10
and those restaurants are in...
0:16
Nashville, Tennessee; Branson, Missouri;
0:23
let's see in Alabama.
0:26
- Foley, Alabama and it's located
0:36
- [Theresa] An entertainment district.
0:38
- Yeah, and the entertainment center,
0:40
for lack of a better word
0:41
but it's just, they're continually building OWA up
0:47
where there's gonna be a lot of, lot of fun things,
0:49
one of our restaurants is in there.
0:51
Panama City; Myrtle beach, South Carolina
1:00
- And in Savannah, we've got the Lady and Sons
1:02
and then Paula Deen's Creek House,
1:04
but this drink is served
1:07
at the Paula Deen Family Kitchen restaurants.
1:12
I don't think, I don't think we served this
1:14
at the Lady and Sons or Creek House maybe,
1:16
but I don't, I'm not sure
1:18
but, so I think with the 4th of July coming up
1:22
everybody that orders this at the restaurants loves it.
1:27
So I've got one cup of lime juice,
1:36
and this is just cold water.
1:41
and I got my blueberries.
1:43
So I'm gonna start with two cups of blueberries.
1:48
I guess I'm just gonna (indistinct) it right here
1:52
- [Theresa] Or in the pitcher
1:56
I hate, I'd sure hate to break it, but,
2:00
let's see, I'm gonna try it.
2:06
of frozen blueberries that have been thawed.
2:09
And, but you know what?
2:11
It's blueberry season.
2:12
So I don't know why you wouldn't use fresh
2:15
but for the restaurant, you know
2:17
and you servin' this 365 days a year.
2:22
It's not always blueberry season, is it?
2:27
Okay? Let's hope I don't make too big
2:32
- [Theresa] I think you put all of it in together.
2:35
- Well, I'm gonna do it separate
2:38
just to get a little head start.
2:48
that I don't have a blender?
2:52
You know, we sold Riverbend being furnished.
2:57
So I think they got a blender now at their house.
3:15
Shake it, but don't break it, Paula!
3:18
That's what the guys used to say
3:19
us girls in our shorts,
3:23
and those guys would holler
3:24
"Shake it, but don't break it!"
3:27
Wish I had that swing in my backyard.
3:32
those were the days of innocence.
3:37
I'm just gonna add my cup of sugar
3:50
I wanna get that sugar
4:00
because the water that I'm gonna put in there
4:06
so that won't help that sugar to dissolve at all.
4:09
- [Theresa] Will the lime juice help?
4:10
I was wondering, does lime juice help?
4:13
I didn't know if the acidity
4:16
- I don't know, but let's go ahead
4:18
and put that in and we'll add,
4:22
(glasses clink loudly)
4:26
we'll add the water last.
4:39
This is gonna be delicious.
4:41
I mean, we know that for...
4:47
(laughs hysterically)
4:49
Wouldn't that taste good in the drink?
4:53
Okay, so much for you.
4:57
All right, so in goes our
5:00
four cups of cold water.
5:06
- [Theresa] Look how pretty.
5:13
but I'm gonna wash that sugar off my hands.
5:17
I know you find it hard to believe,
5:19
but I got sugar on me (chuckles).
5:27
I think this works good
5:33
for a little while and make sure your sugar dissolves,
5:36
that's what I like to do
5:41
I wanna make sure that...
5:51
and I made a mess on the inside,
5:55
I just took it outta the drawer a second ago.
6:01
So I just wanna make sure it's nice and clean and pretty.
6:06
Did I get it pretty clean?
6:08
- [Theresa] Yes, Ma'am.
6:09
- Theresa, I can't...
6:10
- [Theresa] I think so.
6:21
And I picked out a glass
6:24
and this is so appropriate.
6:28
Bob and Holly McManus
6:32
gave me this set of glasses
6:34
for my birthday, 75th year.
6:42
blueberry punch in here
6:45
and hopefully the picture will show up.
6:49
- [Theresa] Oh yeah, you gonna have
6:50
to fill it all the way up.
7:00
engraved on these glasses.
7:03
- [Theresa] That's so cute.
7:08
And you probably don't know who I'm saying
7:10
when I say Bob and Holly McManus,
7:15
but Bob is the CEO of Paula Deen Ventures.
7:20
So he's a very important Bob in my life.
7:27
All right, now I'm gonna...
7:36
need to go a little deeper.
7:44
I'm gonna garnish it with some blueberries
7:56
And you know that if you...
7:59
it's a tough piece of mint.
8:02
Is this what we are growing out in the garden?
8:04
- [Theresa] Yes, ma'am.
8:07
And y'all know if you won't...
8:10
If you just set this in your glass,
8:12
it's not gonna release any flavor.
8:14
You have to actually crush it.
8:18
Take your mint and crush it
8:21
and it will release all that mint flavor
8:25
throughout your drink.
8:28
So I think this would be wonderful for the 4th of July
8:32
and it's kid friendly (chuckles).
8:36
Mm...This is so delicious.
8:40
I certainly understand why people love this so much
8:46
as the drink goes down,
8:47
you can see the picture better can't you?
8:50
- I'd have thought it would've been
8:51
the other way around.
8:54
Yeah, it's coming through as it gets cold.
8:57
But so if y'all have an opportunity to go
9:00
to Pauline's Family Kitchen
9:03
in the places that I named
9:07
tell 'em you want that blueberry limeade drink.
9:20
Alright, let me see if I can fix this thing now.
9:25
So I wanna show y'all the beauty of this drink,
9:29
our blueberry limeade that served
9:31
at Paula Deen's Family Kitchen.
9:38
I'm gonna make the children homemade popsicles.
9:47
Eddie, thank you for finding
9:53
- [Eddie] You're welcome.
9:53
I can't find my paint.
9:56
What does it look like (chuckles)?
9:58
- [Eddie] I don't know...
9:59
- Does it look like a brush or...
10:00
- [Eddie] It's a bowl of paint.
10:04
- [Eddie] I put it down to find that now...
10:04
- I was gonna say, did you take it
10:06
to the garage with you, or...?
10:14
So my grands are gonna be having
10:21
a homemade popsicle that I know is all fresh ingredients,
10:27
a hidden bonus to the blue...
10:29
(drink splashes out)
10:30
to the blueberry limeade.
10:37
So in the freezer they go.
