Take me back to Julep season 🐎
Read MoreWell’p, if y’all have been following along, you know that two of my favorite things are a stiff Boulevardier and coming up with twists on a classic. This one is no different, the herbal notes of Chartreuse with the addition of grapefruit bitters takes the place of Campari in a funky yet delicious variation. Give it a shot.
Read MoreRecently had a chance to check out the gorgeous victorsocialclub and try their Cuban-inspired cocktail menu. They also were kind enough to provide their cocktail recipe for the Old Cuban!
Read MoreI'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.
Read MoreIT HAPPENED! I’m so stoked announce my very first canned cocktail collaboration with my good buddies over at @dapschs! For the first time ever, you’ll be able to physically take home a cocktail pictured here. Dubbed ‘SALTY SUMMER’ - This cocktail is a hybrid between a Spritz, Gose, Negroni Sbagliato and a Salty Dog (ingredients below) and contains TWO servings per can.

Read MoreHere’s another twist on an Amaro cocktail from btparsons book, “Amaro” named the ‘Toronto’ — I’ll admit I’m not the most avid fan of Canadian whiskies, but you’ll be surprised what a touch of black walnut bitters, Fernet and demerara will do a cocktail.
Read MoreThanks to our good friends over at queencitycocktails, we've been doing a bit of tinkering with our @anovaculinary sous vide cooker. On the docket tonight is a homemade sage, ginger, blackberry and black pepper shrub. The sweetness of the berries and demerara balances perfectly with the spiciness of the ginger and black pepper, as well as the tartness of the apple cider vinegar. Check out the recipe below! 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

Read MoreAnother Filipino-inspired recipe for your feed 🇵🇭
Daiquiris have a special place in my heart, but not as much as the flavors of ube and calamansi. These two ingredients are staples in Filipino culture. When I was growing up in the Philippines, the go-to citrus wasn’t lemon or lime, it was calamansi. If you havent had it before, think of it as a cross between an orange, kumquat, and lime. Heavily citrusy with a sour back-end. Together with an Agricole from my friends at @highwirechs and a funky Jamaican rum from @hampdenestaterum - this recipe was a winner. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Cheers y’all.
Movie night with the fam. Homemade Maple New York Sours seemed appropriate.
Read MoreCan we fit an entire breakfast in a cocktail? 🧇🥃🍳
My friends over at whistlepigwhiskey sent over a kit of rye waffle mix, their barrel aged maple syrup and their Piggyback Rye, complete with a waffle maker! To be quite honest, I can’t think of anything better to pair with waffles than their ridiculously good maple syrup, aged in their own whiskey barrels. But it got me thinking, how can we incorporate all of the above into a cocktail. Well… the answer is below.
If you’ve never had a “flip” style cocktail - don’t be scared, it uses a WHOLE egg instead of just egg whites to create a rich, velvety texture to the drink (think egg nog), while providing a creamy, frothy head to accentuate the flavors in the cocktail - this one is no exception. The maple syrup plays beautifully with the rye whiskey and rye waffle in this. The egg just adds that extra layer for rich texture making for your new favorite breakfast cocktail.
Habañero x Paloma x Margarita = ?
Introducing a fiery twist on two classic cocktails, the Paloma and the Spicy Margarita. This original recipe combines the refreshing citrus notes of a Paloma with the heat of a Spicy Margarita to create a unique drink for your summer cocktail arsenal. It’s the perfect blend of sweet, sour, and spicy, making it the ideal choice for those who enjoy a bit of a kick in their cocktail.
Cheers y’all.
Just remember to pace yourself with this one 😏
How’s everyone’s #DryJanuary going? Or are yall still #TeamTinyCocktails?
Which tiny cocktail should I do next? 🍸
Is this the official cocktail of 2024?
If you haven’t heard already it’s #BatangaWeek and we’re all here for it.
Cocktails don’t have to be hard and this is no exception. When we were in Mexico last week with @drinkcazcanes, we all fell in love with this drink. The ingredients are simple: tequila, lime and [Mexican] @cocacola. You might be saying, “well Miguel, thats just a tequila-coke…” - it’s not until you add the salt on the rim and IN the glass will this drink just shine. The salt accentuates everything in the cocktail from the agave to the herbal [almost amaro-like] flavors from the soda. If you haven’t had this yet, you need to. I can almost guarantee you already have all the ingredients.
Cheers y’all.
A festive freezer door old fashioned? I got you!
