🍹Do you like Piña Coladas but hate getting caught in the rain?🍍Well read on below...
.
Sorry I've been a bit MIA lately, I was a little sick but finally feeling well enough to do some experimenting today after reading a couple articles on @punch_drink.
.
Let me introduce you to a Clarified Milk Punch, the scalded milk coagulates with the citric acid in the cocktail and strained through a fine sieve to produce the clearest cocktail you've ever seen. Believe it or not, there's actually an ice cube in this @viskistyle rocks glass 😉🥃💎
Let’s cool off with a summer spritz, shall we?
Together with hennessy I’ve created a recipe worthy of this summer heat called The Summer Spritz. This recipe combines #HennessyVSOP with flavors of elderflower and lemon to create a recipe that is both refreshing and elegant. Enjoy responsibly, cheers y’all!
Alright @notjustabartender, you convinced me…
Some people are out there hoarding their Green Chartreuse and some of us are using it as a base spirit 😂 This one is like if a Piña Colada and a Chartreuse Swizzle had a baby and served it over crushed ice in a Coco Lopez can. A big thank you Erick Castro-Diaz (@hungrybartender) for this spec. Absolutely incredible.
TIKI-inspired Boulevardier? Yep.
Together with coopercraft, my good buddy Jordan aka @highproofpreacher and myself have teamed up to create two takes on a Boulevardier. Both recipes will be using similar ingredients in pineapple and sherry but they will be vastly different in flavor and texture but very similar in that they’re both absolutely delicious.
This is my take on a tiki-inspired cross between a Boulevardier and a Jungle Bird. This recipe is both SHAKEN and STIRRED. The initial base is a Boulevardier-riff that combines Oloroso sherry and the 100-proof coopercraft Barrel Reserve to provide something familiar but not overly sweet to compliment the topping (think Garibaldi). This orgeat, salted-pineapple foam is literally the icing on the cake. This topping is shaken to showcase the pineapple’s natural ability to foam when aerated (shaken) providing for light and fluffy top and a strong, complementary base to match. You NEED to make this recipe this week and make sure to head on over to @highproofpreacher to check out his coffee/pineapple riff!
Hope everyone had a happy and safe thanksgiving weekend! Here’s a recipe to help you get back to the grind this week.

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!
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.
This one will give you all the tiki vibes for #TikiTuesday 🗿
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!
