I’ll be traveling to Jalisco, Mexico to visit the renowned Patròn Hacienda and Distillery tomorrow!
.
I hope you follow along as I tour the grounds, distillery and show you how this tequila is literally brought from farm to table. To top it all off, I’ll be there to show y’all who is crowned the winner of this year’s #MOTY!
.
Anyways, while you’re waiting for all of that action, feel free to make a recipe I’ve been working on using Patròn’s Extra Anejo Tequila and let me know what you think!
An espresso martini crossed with a mint chocolate Irish coffee? Sure, I got you
’Tis the season after all, I’ve come up with the perfect recipe to go along with this bottle of Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey. This single grain, Irish whiskey is first aged in oak then finished in Oloroso sherry casks.

🙋🏾♂️ Raise your hand if bourbon + chocolate is your love language. I’m stoked to #partner up with @cooperscraft for #ValentinesDay to bring you an amazing cocktail to share with your significant other, in this case, my lovely wife… and yes, it has everything you could ever want for a romantic evening: bourbon and chocolate 😉

Sick of espresso martinis?
Try this modern classic instead. It’s a stirred boozy drink and gets its name from the flash from flaming an orange twist. Traditionally served up in a chilled coupe but does perfectly fine over a big rock as well.
Cheers yall.
🍀Who’s celebrating #SaintPatricksDay today?

I’m sure most of you are already familiar with that Irish Coffee, but have you ever tried an Irish Tonic?? I was introduced to the coffee/tonic combo by my friends over at @jackrudycocktailco not too long ago and was hooked! I figured this recipe would be fit for today’s festivities. Hope y’all give it a try and let me know what you think!
Hey everyone! Tune in tomorrow morning on Charleston’s very own lowcountrylive on abcnews4. I’ll be making a couple of holiday cocktails LIVE on-air, including this Bourbon Milk Punch, it’ll be your new favorite dessert cocktail. Check out the recipe on http://holycityhandcraft.com (Link in bio)

It’s like an Irish Coffee, but not.🍀☕️ This enhanced version of the classic is still very easy to make and only takes a few more ingredients to execute. Chicory and coffee have always been a match made in heaven but together with an eight year old Irish Whisky like thequietmanwhiskey it just brings it to a whole other level. The notes of sweet vanilla and oak that is imparted from the barrel is on full display in this version of Irish coffee, only to be accentuated with a salted caramel foam to balance out the bitterness from the coffee.
Now cheers, and #HappyStPatricksDay.
Ok ok… Its time to finally make this monstrosity… the PARMESAN(?!) Espresso Martini.
This idea was initially suggested by the talented thebittergringo and with highproofteacher’s stamp of approval, I knew I had to try it… and I’m not gonna lie y’all, this was astonishingly delicious. I typically put a pinch of salt in my espresso martinis anyway but that savory, cheesy, funky salinity you get from parmesan is just unmatched and worked perfectly in this cocktail. I would not be surprised to see this pop up at more bars soon, but y’all already know that would be a $24 cocktail 😂
TL;DR: You need to make this, its so good.
Coffee + Jamaican Rum + #NegroniWeek seems like a winning combo, right?
I’ve been wanting to use this pour over stand from Farmhouse Pottery for a cocktail and just haven’t found the right occasion for it…. UNTIL NOW. If you haven’t had the combo of coffee + Campari, it's a match made in heaven so you gotta try this one out.
#ProTip : if you find this a little too bitter for your taste, add a pinch of salt and thank me later! Cheers y’all.
If you love espressos + whiskey, this one is for you.
Y’all know alllll about the Espresso Martini, well what if we combined that with one of the classics in a rye Manhattan, well this is that cocktail and with the addition of salted caramel syrup. this one is absolutely delicious.
see you need a little pick-me-up.
Well you’re in luck, together with amarula_us, I’ve created a coffee forward cocktail that will do just that. If you haven’t heard of #Amarula, its a cream liqueur created from the Marula fruit native to Africa that is aged in French Oak to round out the hints of nougat, caramel and vanilla. All perfect accompaniments to your cold brew or espresso (and/or whiskey). Enjoy and cheers y’all!
PSA: You can buy today on TerlatoSpirits.com, at Total Wine & More, or a retailer near you!
Spooky season is in the air …

What better combo than an Irish Whiskey with notes of light notes of oak, vanilla and caramel to pair with coffee, chocolate and mint for my take on a traditional Grasshopper cocktail. I really enjoyed making this one and hope y’all try it out!

The fact that Angel’s Envy Bourbon has massive notes of maple syrup is just 😗👌🏾

I may have missed the train on #NationalCoffeeDay but it was a blast to be able to create this Colpetto with my friends Amaro Montenegro! Just build it in the glass, easy peasy!
