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!

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.

A Noble Hospitality

This cocktail, A Noble Hospitality, won a cocktail competition to become Charleston Wine + Food’s signature cocktail back in 2017. It was created by my friend Morgan Hurley of Mex1 and has all the elements I love in a great balanced cocktail and flavor profiles of smoke, bitter, fruity and sweet. You will want to make this one ASAP!

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!
