It’s about time we brûlée some apples for an Old Fashioned.
We created an Old Fashioned thats sure to please this season. Flavors of cinnamon, caramelized sugar and apples play together perfectly with Rabbit Hole’s Dareringer bourbon, which is finished with PX sherry casks and has notes of oak, dried fruit and caramel.
This is one you need to make.
Cheers y’all!
Simple Math: 🍫+ 🥃 = ❤️

It feels to get back to playing around with some basic cocktails but also playing around with some new video styles. I’m going to start to make a new Reel series and I’m trying to land on the format, would love to hear y’alls thoughts on this style (look/feel, music, voiceover, titles, etc). Let me know what else you’d want to see.
Unveil the rich and robust flavor of our Bloody Amber Road. A tantalizing blend that exceeds expectations, leaving a lasting impression with every sip. Indulge in the essence of expert craftsmanship and pure sophistication. Cheers to unparalleled quality.
Read MoreHey you! Looking for that crushable fall/winter cocktail?
Together with my friends at Watkins1868, I’ve created a bitter twist on a whiskey sour which uses their new all-natural Orange Bitters which have rich and warm notes of citrus, clove and cinnamon. I thought these flavor profiles would pair well with the season and would be perfect for sipping this fall and winter.

This idea comes from a Paddock, which is an area for horses to graze in after a big day. I wanted to really show off saddled leather and grassy notes from a split of dry vermouth for my take on a Boulevardier. It’s easily one of my favorite cocktails to have many adaptations of, this one is a bit lighter, while the bitters let it run in a different strong direction.
Let's be honest... luxardousa maraschino cherries are like the icing on a bourbon cocktail cake 🍒🍸

Read MoreHope y’all are staying healthy! For those of you cooped up at home and have been asking for some easy cocktail recipes, I have some exciting news! I’ve yet again #partnered up with @cooperscraft to highlight some of the talented mixologists in Charleston, SC. In this five part series which I’m dubbing #CocktailsAtHome, each mixologist will be creating a bourbon cocktail from scratch that you can easily recreate at home. Now let’s get started shall we?

First up on this series is Anna Lazaridis (@annathegreek83) of Charleston, SC with a classic Brown Derby cocktail, its strong, tart, and sweet - or as Anna puts it: “With the sweetness of the honey and the tartness of the grapefruit, the Brown Derby is an excellent example of a simply well balanced cocktail. I incorporated thyme into the honey because we seem to have a lot of that on our hands😉” #pungame💪🏼
🙋🏾♂️ 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 😉
Read MoreI don’t know about you, but I’m ready for music festival szn.
Together with my friends at drinkhighwest, I want to share one of three cocktails that High West will be serving at this year’s High Water Festival (@highwaterfest) here in Charleston. This cocktail is light, refreshing and pairs perfectly with great music. Let me know if you’ll be out at the festival this year and check out the recipe below while you’re at it!
Please drink responsibly. Cheers y’all.
Here’s another twist on an Amaro cocktail from btparsons book, “Amaro” named the ‘Toronto’ — I’ll admit I’m not the most avid fan of Canadian whiskies, but you’ll be surprised what a touch of black walnut bitters, Fernet and demerara will do a cocktail.
Read MoreWhat 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.
Read MoreHave you ever wondered how to barrel age a cocktail at home? I’m excited to once again #partner up with Cooperscraft to show y’all how to do so! The barrel aging technique is not only a tried and true way to batch a cocktail, it’s also a great way to add a subtle toasty flavor while mellowing a cocktail to create a perfect balance of flavors. The instructions are simple and the hardest part will be waiting for the cocktail to age without wanting to have more than one sample. .
Note that not all barrels are created equal, so the recipe is split into equal parts instead of exact measurements. Make sure to read the barrel preparations from your manufacturer before the barrel aging process as those instructions can vary per manufacturer as well. Enjoy!
Let’s try this again, shall we? 🥣
Cinnamon Toast Crunch… but make it drinkable.
Who doesn’t love CTC?? I figured it would be fun to try to recreate it into cocktail. I’m going to make two versions and this is the first rendition - a traditional milk punch with actual cream. The addition of biscotti liqueur here adds that sweet bread flavor that you typically get from French toast so I figured it would be fitting… and guess it what, it actually works. Give this one a try…
Anyone have any guesses on the second version of this cocktail??
Whoa… you feel that chill in the air? That can only mean one thing…
IT’S. FALL. Y’ALL
Combining the #ChampagneOfBeers with the flavors bourbon, maple, cinnamon and lemon to create a fall Radler that is perfect for the season. Give this recipe a try this season and let us know what you think below!
Cheers y’all!
Another highlight of Mountain Weekend was bartacolife in Asheville, NC coming in hot (literally) with street tacos and cocktails next to their wood burning fireplace — we managed to try almost their entire cocktail menu.

Read MoreAnyone know where to get jumbo sized cherries? Asking for this jumbo-sized Old Fashioned 🍒😂
This may or may not be an #aprilfools joke but this is a great recipe for a BATCHED Old Fashioned. Just mix the ingredients below with ice and strain into a serving vessel of your choice. If you’re serving for a later date, add 4 oz of filtered water and throw that bottle/container in the fridge or freezer until you’re ready to serve. Serve over a large ice cube and garnish with an orange twist and maraschino cherry (optional).
Disclaimer: Please drink responsibly and don’t try to drink this entire thing by yourself in one sitting.
Are y’all enjoying these #CocktailsAtHome recipes yet? This next @cooperscraft cocktail recipe is not only easy to make but is easily batched and is extremely enjoyable and refreshing to sip on. Its perfect for sitting out on the porch on those warm spring nights.

Next up on the #CocktailsAtHome series with @cooperscraft is Jayce McConnell (@derekthedreaded) of Charleston, SC: “The great thing about this is you can make several jars ahead of time and store in the fridge for up to a week, so if you have more fruit than you want to eat you can put it to good use!”
