Hope everyone had a happy and safe thanksgiving weekend! Here’s a recipe to help you get back to the grind this week.
Read MoreIt’s a cold one tonight, get ready for Toddy szn with this easy recipe.
Together with bladeandbowwhiskey, I’ve created an easy, delicious take on a hot toddy. It combines the warming flavors of bourbon, ginger, honey and lemon and adds some fall spices to the mix - making for a drink that’s sure to warm you up tonight.
A little pick-me-up.
Just sharing a slight variation on a cocktail I had in MX. We drank these almost every night we were there and was just amazed that it only contained two ingredients. Its simple but had a lot of complex flavors so I figured I’d add a bit a little more to it to jazz it up. Here’s my take on a classic Carajillo, cheers y’all.

Anyone else here salt their watermelons? No? Well you’re in for a treat, this recipe a call back to one of my favorite flavor combinations of sweet and salty gimlet riff that is incredibly refreshing. Make sure to make this one while its watermelon season. Cheers y’all.
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!

The holiday season is around the corner. Are you ready?
Together with angosturahouse, we’ve created the perfect stirred rye cocktail that marries flavors of cinnamon with their newest member of the bitters’ family: ANGOSTURA® cocoa bitters.
Now is a perfect time to get the fireplace going and make this recipe. Cheers y’all!
Kick off the weekend with a mezcal recipe to celebrate the dead.
I’ve created a cocktail recipe fitting to celebrate Dia de Los Muertos and here it is. Hints of spice and tropical fruit balance well with the subtle smokiness of this mezcal to provide a refreshing cocktail with a spicy kick. Salud!
Ever been on Cloud 9? If not, this will take you there. This recipe was created by my talented friend Darren Fallon, based in Asheville, NC.

Read MoreLets keep this real simple… I created a fresh take on a classic gin and tonic utilizing fresh juices and building layers of both flavors and colors. This one is built in the glass and is very easy to make! Cheers y’all!
Read More#LaborDayWeekend Vibez.
With Labor Day coming up, it also means the end of summer is just around the corner, to create a recipe fitting for such an occasion. This one is a simple/fruit-forward cocktail that is easily batched and will leave you (and your guests) wanting more. Cheers y’all!
This late 1800’s classic combines a traditional whiskey sour but adds a red wine floater. It’s as beautiful as it is delicious and its a great gateway to wine drinkers who “hate” bourbon. Give this one a shot!
Read MoreClear 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.
Is #AmaroAfternoon a thing yet? Because it should totally be a thing.
I feel like I struck gold with this recipe, its light and refreshing afternoon sipper. The herbal/bitter/fruity rhubarb notes in Zucca Rabarbaro play along well with the sweetness of the pineapple and acidity of lemon making this the perfect way to kick off your weekend.
I created an easy spring cocktail utilizing Mezcal Don Ramón and fresh satsuma orange juice. Combined with the tartness of lemon, sweetness of honey and bitterness of Campari to compliment the smokey, but fruit-forward mezcal. Cheers y’all
Read MoreHere’s to my ongoing obsession with trying to make a clear Negroni using new ingredients. This is a cross between a Venetian Spritz (as seen in “Spritz!” by @taliabaiocchi / @lesliepariseau) and a traditional Negroni. Just that slight salinity from the brine really balances this cocktail out. Recipe below!
This one will give you all the tiki vibes for #TikiTuesday 🗿
If you’re into funky Jamaican rums, this is the recipe for you.
Read MoreAnyone else feeling those travel withdrawals? My wife and I honeymooned in Cinque Terre almost five years ago and we are itching to get back so drinking bitter spritzes while staring out into the ocean. For now, I think this will have to do for back porch sipping and enjoying this beautiful weather. Cheers y’all.
