Oolong Island Negroni
Oolong Island Negroni

Up next on Charleston's tour of #NegroniWeek with @campari_southcarolina is my buddy Jimmy Chmielewski (@jimmy_withthe_goodhair) at @thearcher with his take on a recipe thats a Negroni that drinks like a spritz, check it out below. "We really wanted to showcase some of the less conventional ingredients or techniques that we're utilizing at The Archer. The coconut and milk oolong tea really give the Campari a sort of bitter fruit loop flavor and a much more velvety mouthful. We also stand by the belief that most things are better carbonated and a negroni is no different. The force carbonation makes a boozy sipper feel like a light and fizzy Spritz. In terms of the thought process of the ingredients, toasted coconut screams tiki, so we really wanted to lean into that flavor profile (hence, banana and rum) without getting too far away from what a negroni truly tastes "

Basil Limoncello Spritz
Basil Limoncello Spritz

The lemon-forward spritz you’ve been looking for 🍋

Together with my friends at luxardousa we’re making a Limoncello Spritz to soak up all the #AperitivoHour vibes this summer. This one uses #Luxardo Limoncello which is made the old-fashioned way in Italy, using the traditional method of infusing alcohol with lemon peels, pulp and juice with REAL lemons harvested in southern Italy. Their Limoncello isn’t just great in a spritz, it can be enjoyed straight up and chilled, or on the rocks with soda or tonic water as well.

As with any spritz, keep it easy and fun! I encourage you to add a fun garnish to add a fun garnish of your own. I used basil to keep with the Italian flavors but also because we know how well basil pairs with the brightness of lemon.

Anyways, I hope you give this one a try this summer!

Watermelon High Sea
Watermelon High Sea

It’s watermelon szn and #WorldBeeDay? Let’s cook 🐝🍯🍉

This recipe combines a couple of my favorite things: gin, honey, basil, watermelon with an addition of a bitter aperitif in Select and a pinch of smoked sea salt just to bring out more of the fruity flavors in this cocktail. Of course this is going to be served over crushed ice which will let the drink evolve a bit as you drink it.

Cheers y’all.

Bantha Milk Fizz
Bantha Milk Fizz

A long time ago... In a city far, far away, a six year old boy watched his first @starwars film and was instantly hooked just like many of those before him.

I grew up watching these films over and over again and waited in line for the midnight showing of the prequels and the new series. I collected the toys, wore the shirts, etc. Since tonight is the official release of #TheRiseofSkywalker - I figured I’d honor my favorite series of all time with a boozy take on that subtle beverage with the cult following — BLUE MILK.

Butterfly Tea and T
Butterfly Tea and T

🌈✨ It ain’t magic until you drink it…
.
By now you are already familiar with the magical attributes of the Butterfly Pea Flower. While generally tasteless, the flowers are dried and made into tea. When brewed, turn into a dark blue hue - turns out letting it steep in room temperature gin does the same thing. The cool part about it is that anything acidic turns the liquid’s hue from a deep blue into a bright pink-ish purple.
.
I had a lot of fun playing around with this one - feel free to get creative and try it for yourself!

Clear as cristalino 💎 I created a cocktail for the ever gracious host, as clear and refreshing as Tequila Don Ramón Cristalino Platinium Añejo. I used ingredients such as vanilla and lavender to enhance and complement the subtle notes of nuts and vanilla of this particular Añejo. With a touch of lemon to add a bit more brightness, this well-rounded cocktail truly sets the bar, at home.

If you’re unfamiliar with the cristalino process, allow me to clarify (ha, get it?) - After maturation in oak, a complex filtration process removes the liquid’s amber color and piquancy. This results in a ridiculously smooth taste and long finish calling for easy sipping and/or amazing cocktails.

Koru Shrub
Koru Shrub

You know what they say about an apple a day… Yeah you know the rest, I create a great winter cocktail using fresh Koru apples from New York. If you’ve never heard of the Koru variety of apples, they are crisp, extremely sweet, juicy and most importantly, sustainable - making them the perfect apple to use for this season. The cool part about these apples is they’re slow to brown so they’re perfect for garnishing your cocktail, as well as using it as the main ingredient. Hope y’all try this recipe it out, it’s one of our favs. Cheers y’all!

The Salted Peanut Butter Fizz
The Salted Peanut Butter Fizz

Fall is officially here, so how does a peanut butter, banana, hazelnut, coffee and chocolate cocktail sound to you?

Well, you’re in luck. I’ve teamed up with screwballwhiskey to create a cocktail thats somewhere between a chocolate egg cream and a bourbon fizz. The secret is in the banana, hazelnut-infused cold brew amaro created by my talented friend @schenzelwashington. Its constructed by steeping coffee grounds with banana liqueur, hazelnut extract and amaro for 6-12 hours then fine straining into a vessel of your choice. I can’t think of a more perfect accompaniment to the flavors in peanut butter.
