Beericano (Non-Alcoholic)

I believe so!

Had to give this one a try.This recipe went viral late last year thanks to @_thirstywhale, and since a lot of y’all are doing #DryJanuary, it felt like the right time to make a non-alcoholic version. I’ve been on the hunt for a solid NA Campari and sweet vermouth alternative for a while now, and I think I finally found it with Giffard Sirop Aperitif. It hits that balance of bitterness and sweetness that makes this drink work.I’ll be playing around with a Negroni and Boulevardier (NA) next, but let me know what else you’d like to see.Pro tip: You can also make this low-ABV by using Campari and your favorite sweet vermouth, then topping with an NA beer.Cheers, y’all!

Salted Chocolate Dalgona Foam

This salted chocolate dalgona foam is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Thick, velvety, lightly sweet, and just salty enough to keep things in check, it adds texture and contrast to coffee cocktails that already lean rich.

On an Espresso Martini, it softens the bitterness and adds a dessert-like finish. On a Carajillo, it plays perfectly with the vanilla and spice, turning each sip into layers instead of one-note coffee.

Same drink, totally different experience once the foam hits the glass.

Cheers, y'all!

Salted Chocolate Dalgona Carajillo

Move over espresso martini…

#ad21+ Together with my friends at @licor43global, I’m going to show you how to make your new favorite carajillo this season.

If you want the full recipe card sent straight to your DMs, comment DALGONA below.

If you remember dalgona coffee from 2020, it blew up for a reason — instant coffee whipped with sugar and water until it turned into this thick, velvety foam you could spoon over milk. It was simple, a little over the top, and honestly… pretty delicious.

This cocktail takes that same idea and gives it the night-cap treatment with tequila, espresso, #Licor43, and a salted chocolate dalgona foam that sits right on top made with Licor 43’s chocolate liqueur. It’s rich, smooth, and way easier to drink than it looks.

Shop Licor 43 in time for the holidays at buylicor43.com

Please drink responsibly.

Cheers, y’all!

Caramel Apple Sour

I'm back to making my favorite desserts into cocktails…

Together with my friends at empress1908gin, I've recreated a cocktail thats inspired by one of my favorite fair treats. If you've ever had a caramel apple at a fall fair, this cocktail is exactly that vibe in a glass — sweet caramel, crisp apple, a little salt, and just enough richness to make it feel like a proper fall or winter sipper. It's simple, balanced, and way easier to drink than an actual caramel apple.
