Lemon and chocolate don’t belong together… or do they?

I’ve made a 20th Century cocktail in the past and thought there was no way it would work. Lemon and chocolate don’t traditionally go together but for some reason, in that cocktail, it just works. While I think the original version was ok (made with gin), bourbon is a much better fit for this cocktail.

What do you think, would you try this?

Cheers y’all.

Picked up these unique martini glasses today and thought I should do a couple experiments… you know, for science.

Who needs a white linen when you can make it pink?

Together with my friends over at empress1908gin, we put together a spin on a traditional White Linen with Empress Elderflower Rose Gin. Elderflower and cucumber have always been a match made in heaven and the addition in this cocktail is no exception. Hope y’all enjoy this one!

Yes I know it feels like 🔥 in Charleston this summer so I made y’all a recipe to help you cool down. It is Spritz season after all 😉

Another @holycityhandcraft signature cocktail contender for the Dinner en Blanc at @kiawahriverchs coming up in less than two weeks. Check out the recipe below, make it (because #TGIF) and let me know what you think!

I'm always inspired by a couple of you @instagram mixologists to create something a little more fun than the typical bourbon-centric cocktail y’all have been so used to seeing. A couple months ago, local kombucha maker, Jonathan Cox, over at @onelovekombucha invited me and my wife over to their ‘brewery’ to see the process and try a couple of flavors he had been working on. When I tried this hibiscus/ginger variety, I instantly knew it would be great in a bright summer cocktail. Combined with a butterfly pea flower ice sphere (ahem… thanks for the idea @shesmegnificent), here’s my attempt at a kombucha cocktail.

Weekend vibes from @thevictorsocialclub - it's a gorgeous Saturday in Charleston today y'all, get out there and enjoy it!
