Drink a Black-Eyed Susan at Preakness Stakes, Baltimore, Maryland
The George E. Mitchell Black-Eyed Susan Stakes is a Grade II American Thoroughbred horse race for three-year-old fillies run over a distance of 1+1⁄8 miles on the dirt annually at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland. The Black-Eyed Susan Stakes is one of three races that are the de facto distaff counterparts to the Triple Crown races, along with the Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs and the Acorn Stakes at Belmont Park.
Created in 1973 by Harry Stevens, a longtime caterer at Pimlico, the Black-Eyed Susan has served as the race’s official cocktail ever since and serves as an homage to Maryland’s state flower of the same name.
Made with peach schnapps, bourbon, vodka, orange juice, and sour mix garnished with an orange slice and a cherry.
