The Plainview Sour
Hey you! Looking for that crushable fall/winter cocktail?
Together with my friends at Watkins1868, I’ve created a bitter twist on a whiskey sour which uses their new all-natural Orange Bitters which have rich and warm notes of citrus, clove and cinnamon. I thought these flavor profiles would pair well with the season and would be perfect for sipping this fall and winter.
The Jenkins
Nothing better to do during tropical storm #hermine? May as well experiment with Matcha... This makes it healthy right?
Mare-ly Perfect Ride
Mare-ly Perfect Ride by Caroline Woodruff
This idea comes from a Paddock, which is an area for horses to graze in after a big day. I wanted to really show off saddled leather and grassy notes from a split of dry vermouth for my take on a Boulevardier. It’s easily one of my favorite cocktails to have many adaptations of, this one is a bit lighter, while the bitters let it run in a different strong direction.
The Cherry Spelling Bee
Let's be honest... luxardousa maraschino cherries are like the icing on a bourbon cocktail cake 🍒🍸
Striped Pumpkin Pie
Here’s another Thanksgiving cocktail for y’all… and here’s to hoping your bellies are as full as your hearts as you spend this time with your family and friends.
Tommy’s Margarita
On this #WorldCocktailDay - let’s make the easiest Margarita you’ll ever make.
Garden Gnome
A Negroni for people who have had too many Negronis…”
You heard the man! Up next on Charleston’s tour of #NegroniWeek with campari south carolina is my buddy Kyle Degolyer (cousinkyled) at barmashchs with his vegetal take on a classic.
This recipe combines the smokiness of mezcal and combines them with the vegetal flavor profiles of bell pepper, Ancho Reyes and celery bitters.
Don’t forget you can grab this cocktail this week! Cheers y’all!
“A lighter rendition of the classic, the Alive and Well is more of an “orange” Negroni. aromatic, floral, herbaceous, and slightly fruity backed with Campari’s signature bitterness; it’s a fun, late-summer sipper.”
Don’t forget you can grab this cocktail at @beautiful_south__ this week! Cheers y’all!
Coconut Bianco Negroni
This might be the most meta thing I’ve ever done…
🥥 Remember when we aged that rum Negroni in a coconut? Well, I hope y’all didn’t throw away that coconut meat soaked with the Negroni because it’s packed with flavor. So now that we’ve aged a Negroni in that coconut, we’re going to age the coconut in a Bianco Negroni - stay tuned for part 2!
The Clover Club
Is this the official cocktail of #ValentinesDay? ❤️🔥
I love me a good classic cocktail and also love that this one is making a resurgence considering the recipe dates back to the late 1800s. All the flavors here play so well together, the brightness of the lemon, fruitiness of the raspberries and texture of the egg white is rounded out by the ever classic fordsgin. If you haven’t made it before, tonight seems like a great night to do so. Oh and maybe you should make two 😘
Brulee Apple Cider Collins
This recipe is sure to get you in a festive mood this season.
I created a festive take on a traditional Collins. This one combines the flavors of maple, apples, caramel and cinnamon into a cup of cheer you’ll be sure to enjoy this season. Cheers y’all!
The Port[Land] Royal
Let’s put that pineapple demerara syrup to good use.
Figured its been a while since I’ve flexed the R&D muscle and what better way to kickstart it by using my buddy Jordan’s super easy pineapple Demerara syrup (check out his reel in the stories). This recipe was an easy one to make and right up my alley… and probably yours too.
Also - Trying a new format for Reels, let me know what y’all think!
(Yes, I know I need a new microphone.)
Mint Simple Syrup
I hear there’s some sort of 🐎 race tomorrow and a certain cocktail *cough* mint julep *cough* that requires mint syrup. Let me show you how easy that is to make.
Stay tuned later today so I can show you how to make the easiest julep you’ve ever made. Just in time for Derby Day!
“A lighter rendition of the classic, the Alive and Well is more of an “orange” Negroni. aromatic, floral, herbaceous, and slightly fruity backed with Campari’s signature bitterness; it’s a fun, late-summer sipper.”

Martini Highball
Its like a highball…but a martini. Listen, I’m a big martini fan - but they are hardly sessionable. This recipe is a bit lighter but well balanced. Give it a try.
Cheers y’all.
Rosita
Alright you heard the man.
If you’re not familiar, the Rosita is a Gaz modern classic in the same family as the Negroni. It’s lighter and more delicate, using tequila as the base spirit. If you’re a fan of Negronis or the bitter sweet flavor profile, you’re going to love this one.
Cheers y’all.
Ba’groni
Bananas + Campari = a match made in heaven.
“The Ba’Groni is using a spiced rum/aged rum blend, a touch of blanc vermouth and banana liqueur to round it out. I love bananas and rum and this makes it an easy sipping Negroni for #NegroniWeek”
Don’t forget you can grab this cocktail at frannieandthefox in hotelemeline this week! Cheers y’all!
The Tourney Tallboy Michelada
It's a good day for the pool/beach! Try making one of these "Tourney Tallboy" Micheladas I made for southernproper. Thank us later ☀️🍻
The Fitzgerald
The rye really stands up to the bold flavors of the cranberry shrub. Providing a full-bodied, but refreshing cocktail
Pink Squirrel
A cocktail to match this weather ⛈️
I’ve never made anything with this liqueur before.
Heck, I had not even heard of it until I picked up a bottle a couple weeks ago. This is creme de noyaux, it’s a liqueur made from bitter almonds, apricot pits and a couple other botanicals… as it turns out, it’s delicious. VERY similar to amaretto but with a dark cherry twist to it. Last week, I asked y’all what I should make with this cocktail and the overwhelming response was this Pink Squirrel, an easy equal parts cocktail.
Honestly, this recipe is like a cheat code for a dessert cocktail. It legit tastes like a dark cherry, vanilla ice cream. It’s rich, sweet and drinks like a milkshake. Enjoy this one sparingly friends :)
Cheers y’all.
