Since there's really no better accessory than a cocktail in your hand, each week brings you a tasty adult beverage from one of our favorite drinking establishments, complete with recipe.
This week: The Ricky Ricardo at Cafe ZuZu
Café ZuZu, the retro bar and lounge area inside Scottsdale's
Hotel Valley Ho, has "stay-cation"
written all over it. And while the hotel rooms are sweet, the hotel's drinks are
even sweeter.
The Ricky Ricardo is a real OG. While other cocktails have come and gone on ZuZu's cocktail list, this one stands the test of time and once it hits your lips, you'll understand why.

Hey, it might buy your next round.
