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!
Rosemary Spritz
Are you in the mood for a refreshing and flavorful cocktail? Look no further than the Rosemary Spritz! This delightful drink combines the aromatic essence of rosemary with crisp and sparkling ingredients for a truly invigorating experience. Stay tuned for the full recipe and enjoy a sip of pure bliss with each glass. 🌿🍹
Oolong Island Negroni
Up next on Charleston's tour of #NegroniWeek with campari_southcarolina is my buddy Jimmy Chmielewski (jimmy_withthe_goodhair) at @thearcher with his take on a recipe thats a Negroni that drinks like a spritz, check it out below. "We really wanted to showcase some of the less conventional ingredients or techniques that we're utilizing at The Archer. The coconut and milk oolong tea really give the Campari a sort of bitter fruit loop flavor and a much more velvety mouthful. We also stand by the belief that most things are better carbonated and a negroni is no different. The force carbonation makes a boozy sipper feel like a light and fizzy Spritz. In terms of the thought process of the ingredients, toasted coconut screams tiki, so we really wanted to lean into that flavor profile (hence, banana and rum) without getting too far away from what a negroni truly tastes "
Cucumber Negroni Sbagliato
As if the Negroni Sbagliato couldn’t get more refreshing 🥒
We made a refreshing Negroni Sbagliato riff inspired by the ingredients in their Cucumber Lemon Gin. The brightness of the lemon and refreshing/vegetal aspects of the cucumber play perfectly well with the ‘Bianco’ version of this classic cocktail.
The Vaporetto
This Venetian twist on a Bicicletta - The Vaporetto 🚤
It’s #spritzszn so today we’re making some with my friends at bonterra. Unlike a Bicicletta, this one will use a base of Bonterra’s Rosé, which uses 100% certified organic grapes that give this wine a dry, crisp but fruity palate with an acidic finish. The addition of Cappelletti enhances the grapefruit notes in this wine and is accentuated by the hint of Meyer lemon in the soda water.
It’s light, refreshing and very crushable.
Cheers y’all!
Mom's Flowers
Your mom deserves her flowers (and wine, mostly wine).
Today we’re doing wine cocktails with my friends at bonterra. Wine cocktails may seem redundant but it’s actually a great way to enjoy a lower-ABV cocktail experience (in moderation, obviously). This recipe is no exception, to celebrate spring and #MothersDay, this recipe uses Bonterra’s Sauvignon Blanc, which is carefully made with certified organic grapes. Think of this recipe as a cross between a Spritz and a Pimms Cup. Its finished with edible flowers to compliment the wine and fresh fruit in the cocktail.
Cheers y’all!
The Countdown
Putting my #Bottesi ice mallet and Lewis bag from my friends at queencitycocktails to good use on this fine Tuesday night and playing around with some potential cocktail recipes.
Fantastic Voyage
A fantastic voyage, you say? You can find that here.
In an effort to showcase some of the local restaurants/bars and amazing talent here in Charleston, SC. You can find this cocktail recipe at thequinteoysterbar or lowlandtavern tavern right in the heart of downtown Charleston. This take on a traditional Air Mail, an OG cocktail from the 1930s.
Spiced Apple Spritz
Good morning Charleston! Check me out on lowcountrylive on abcnews4 this morning. I’ll be making a couple of holiday cocktails including this Spiced Apple Spritz made with stripedpigdistillery Spiced Rum… its Thanksgiving in a cup. Check out the recipe on http://holycityhandcraft.com (Link in bio)
LowCountry Spritz
Found some inspiration in right place. Check out "SPRITZ" by taliabaiocchi of punchdrink and lesliepariseau of saveurmag for some great Italian food and spritz recipes. Cheers to the long weekend! 🍹🙌🏾
The Marion Spritz
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 😉
The Kale Whale
Happy #SundayFunday -- I feel like ‘healthy’ and ‘cocktails’ are oxymorons but a couple months ago, the ladies over at thekalewhale inspired me to make another cocktail using onelovekombucha’s Hibiscus Ginger Kombucha. Check out the recipe below!
The Bianco Venetian Spritz
Ooooh… stunninnnnnn….
If you’ve never put olives in your Spritz, you’re missing out. I want to show y’all the versatility of luxardousa’s Bitter Bianco by using it in classic, aperitivo-forward cocktails such as a traditional spritz. Since the Bitter Bianco is crystal clear and free from artificial dyes/colors, it provides for a gorgeous and unique experience that you and your guests are sure to enjoy. If you’ve never had a Bianco Venetian Spritz, its has notes of bitter citrus and a bright/fruity finish, try this one out!
Sbagliato² Spritz
What a day! It was an honor to be a judge for the bombaysapphireus’s Most Inventive Bartender competition today at dapschs. Some of the most creative mixologists in the southeast were in Charleston, showcasing some of the most unique cocktails I’ve ever seen. I’ll be posting some of these cocktails over the next few days. First up, Charleston’s own @schenzelwashington with his Forrest Gump inspired cocktail with a bit of peas and carrots.
The Old Cuban
Recently 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!
Salty Summer
IT 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. Its got a grapefruit-y spritz element with a touch of local sea salt that is perfect for a hot summer day under the sun.
The Charred Grapefruit Spritz
Movie night with the fam. Homemade Maple New York Sours seemed appropriate.
The Summer Spritz
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!
Mango Royale
Yeahhh, you’ll want to make this one 🥭
Mangos are near and dear to my heart just because it was so ubiquitous in the Philippines and I had it almost every day as a child. Whether it was fresh off a tree, or sliced unripened with a side of shrimp paste; I loved it in all its forms. I figured it was only fitting to make a non-alcoholic drink and pair it with Spindrift’s Mango Black Tea. It’s fruity, light and refreshing - hope you give this one a try! Cheers y’all!
