Pomme Brulee Old Fashioned

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!

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.

The Laddie Rob Roy

…and a partridge in a pear tree.

Happy holiday season y’all. Together with my friends at bruichladdich I’ve created a take on the classic Rob Roy. This takes The Classic Laddie, an unpeated scotch whisky, and combines it with the flavors of spiced pear and walnut to create a cocktail that is easy, delicious, and beautiful. Anyone can make this recipe, so make sure to give the gift of The Classic Laddie this holiday season by heading to the link in my bio!

The Brown Derby

Hope 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💪🏼

Easy tiki drinks? Sign me up.

I’ve teamed up with my friends at Watkins1868 to create a local twist on a classic. This cocktail utilizes their new Aromatic Bitters which has delicious hints of vanilla, tart cherries and hibiscus. All flavors that meld perfectly with a funky Jamaican rum and fresh sweet black tea. Check out the recipe below, cheers y’all!

Lahat Kasama

Kasama • (adjective) being together adv. in company with, along with

I was thrilled when this brand reached out to me last year, Kasamarum is a 7 year blended rum from my home country, The Philippines. So naturally, when the distribution reached SC, I couldn’t wait to sample it (thanks to the kind folks at Kasama).

The rum itself is naturally sweet from sugar cane and figured it would be perfect in a spin on a Daiquiri that I’m calling “LAHAT KASAMA” which translates to “we’re all together” in Tagalog. This rendition is made with fresh calamansi juice which is near and dear to my heart (since I am Filipino and all). If you haven’t had calamansi, I describe it as a cross between a bitter orange, lemon and yuzu - its amazing in cocktail and wish it was more mainstream. Cheers y’all.

Whistle Pig Maple Old Fashioned

Ok, real talk - @whistlepigwhiskey sent over a care package that included their barrel-aged maple syrup and figured why not take their suggestion to make it into an Old Fashioned.
.
In case you didn’t know, the Whistle Pig Farm is in Burlington, VT and they actually have maple trees onsite that they tap and harvest maple syrup from. This syrup is then aged in spent Whistle Pig Rye Barrels producing a super unique, single source maple syrup!

Monina

🥃🔥 Looking for another why to smoke cocktails? Look no further than The Char Board from Whiskeywood. They recently sent this over to me to try out and I’m blown away at its portability, effectiveness and especially that depth of smokey flavor it gives to your cocktail. The three ‘flavors’ of wood include: ‘Apple Orchard’, ‘Peanut Butter and Chocolate’ and my favorite so far, ‘Grandma’s Cookies’ — that being said, this cocktail is named after my grandmother, Mona. I think you can guess which smoke stick I picked.

Kintsugi Negroni

Ever heard of Kintsugi?

Kintsugi (金継ぎ, “golden joinery”) is the art of joining together broken pieces with molten gold to provide one beautiful and cohesive piece. While this is often used to describe pottery, today we’re using it to describe this Negroni riff with my friends at 135eastgin. Their Hyōgo dry gin is meticulously crafted and works perfectly in this recipe while the slight salinity from the sweet soy balances with the bitterness from the aperitif. I really enjoyed this one and hope you do too!
