Coquito Colada

It’s #NationalCoquitoDay tomorrow so let’s get you prepared! #ad

Wh
at happens when you combine TWO of Puerto Rico’s most iconic cocktails? The Piña Colada is arguably Puerto Rico’s most famous contribution to the cocktail world. Created sometime during the 1950s, its exact origins are often debated. But we’d all be remiss if the infamous Coquito didn’t enter the conversation, which origin is ubiquitous with Puerto Rican culture - after all, there’s an entire DAY dedicated to this iconic drink. I think we can all agree the best version is made with Puerto Rico’s legendary rum, Ron del Barrilito.

Cheers y’all.

Winter in Jalisco

If you’re not making a bramble this season, what are you even doing?

Together with my friends at @tresgeneracionestequila I’ve created the perfect cocktail recipe for your friends family and loved ones this holiday season featuring a special tequila that celebrates family legacy and 100 years of tequila-making. This recipe calls for Tres Generaciones Reposado which uses 100% blue agave that is triple-distilled then rested in oak for at least 4 months. The light oak character plays so well with the rosemary in this recipe and it’s the perfect drink to elevate your next get together.

Hosting pro tip: Batch all the ingredients together (except the creme de cassis + garnishes) using the parts below. Pour over crushed ice then top with creme de cassis and set up a holiday garnish bar for your guests to garnish their own.

Cheers y’all!

Eggnog Cream Float

Eggnog cocktails don’t have to be boring y’all, especially not with a salted hazelnut cold foam 😳

Together with my friends at @maolamilk, we made a cocktail that you can enjoy to ease into the holiday season. The secret is in the salted hazelnut cold foam made with #MaolaMilk’s rich eggnog combined with hazelnut liqueur and sea salt. This is whipped and then integrated into the base cocktail which has herbal sweet notes from the amaro and Angostura then combined with crème de cacao to give you a rich, yet balanced cocktail.

Pink Squirrel

A cocktail to match this weather ⛈️

I’ve never made anything with this liqueur before.

Heck, I had not even heard of it until I picked up a bottle a couple weeks ago. This is creme de noyaux, it’s a liqueur made from bitter almonds, apricot pits and a couple other botanicals… as it turns out, it’s delicious. VERY similar to amaretto but with a dark cherry twist to it. Last week, I asked y’all what I should make with this cocktail and the overwhelming response was this Pink Squirrel, an easy equal parts cocktail.

Honestly, this recipe is like a cheat code for a dessert cocktail. It legit tastes like a dark cherry, vanilla ice cream. It’s rich, sweet and drinks like a milkshake. Enjoy this one sparingly friends :)

Cheers y’all.

Cable Knit

What can I say… Day 1 at @gardenandgun JUBILEE was a BLAST. There was so much to see, do and not surprisingly; drink! The biggest surprise was the gorgeous @bladeandbowwhiskey horse trailer-turned mobile bar. It was commissioned by Garden and Gun and this was its first visit to @explorecharleston! Swipe through to see the trailer or check out the @Instagram story to take a peek inside the trailer.

Deepfake Irish Coffee

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.
