For the first time ever, you’ll be able to physically take home a cocktail pictured here. Dubbed ‘SALTY SUMMER’ - This cocktail is a hybrid between a Spritz, Gose, Negroni Sbagliato and a Salty Dog (ingredients below) and contains TWO servings per can. Its got a grapefruit-y spritz element with a touch of local sea salt that is perfect for a hot summer day under the sun.

Thanks to our good friends over at queencitycocktails, we've been doing a bit of tinkering with our @anovaculinary sous vide cooker. On the docket tonight is a homemade sage, ginger, blackberry and black pepper shrub. The sweetness of the berries and demerara balances perfectly with the spiciness of the ginger and black pepper, as well as the tartness of the apple cider vinegar. Check out the recipe below! 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

Ube Daiquiri
Ube Daiquiri

Another Filipino-inspired recipe for your feed 🇵🇭

Daiquiris have a special place in my heart, but not as much as the flavors of ube and calamansi. These two ingredients are staples in Filipino culture. When I was growing up in the Philippines, the go-to citrus wasn’t lemon or lime, it was calamansi. If you havent had it before, think of it as a cross between an orange, kumquat, and lime. Heavily citrusy with a sour back-end. Together with an Agricole from my friends at @highwirechs and a funky Jamaican rum from @hampdenestaterum - this recipe was a winner. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Cheers y’all.

The Breakfast Club Flip
The Breakfast Club Flip

Can we fit an entire breakfast in a cocktail? 🧇🥃🍳

My friends over at whistlepigwhiskey sent over a kit of rye waffle mix, their barrel aged maple syrup and their Piggyback Rye, complete with a waffle maker! To be quite honest, I can’t think of anything better to pair with waffles than their ridiculously good maple syrup, aged in their own whiskey barrels. But it got me thinking, how can we incorporate all of the above into a cocktail. Well… the answer is below.

If you’ve never had a “flip” style cocktail - don’t be scared, it uses a WHOLE egg instead of just egg whites to create a rich, velvety texture to the drink (think egg nog), while providing a creamy, frothy head to accentuate the flavors in the cocktail - this one is no exception. The maple syrup plays beautifully with the rye whiskey and rye waffle in this. The egg just adds that extra layer for rich texture making for your new favorite breakfast cocktail.

Batanga
Batanga

Is this the official cocktail of 2024?

If you haven’t heard already it’s #BatangaWeek and we’re all here for it.

Cocktails don’t have to be hard and this is no exception. When we were in Mexico last week with @drinkcazcanes, we all fell in love with this drink. The ingredients are simple: tequila, lime and [Mexican] @cocacola. You might be saying, “well Miguel, thats just a tequila-coke…” - it’s not until you add the salt on the rim and IN the glass will this drink just shine. The salt accentuates everything in the cocktail from the agave to the herbal [almost amaro-like] flavors from the soda. If you haven’t had this yet, you need to. I can almost guarantee you already have all the ingredients.

Cheers y’all.
