“Why are you picking all the green strawberries?” - my wife

Comment “STRAWBERRY” below and I’ll send this recipe straight to your DMs.

#ad21+ Together with my friends at @codigo1530, I made a crushable margarita riff made using pickled strawberry brine, WITH ingredients as fresh as the tequila itself.

During strawberry season last year, I was lucky enough to pick some beautiful green (unripe) strawberries from a local farm here in Charleston. I’ve seen local chefs utilize these in salads and savory dishes but my mind immediately went to how I could use it in a cocktail recipe. Green strawberries bring acid, vegetal brightness, and subtle tannin that will play really well with the vegetal, bright notes in Codigo 1530 Blanco.

This one is a must-try, cheers y’all.

A bourbon highball built for late winter into early spring. Shaken, topped with ginger beer, and served over crushed ice. Straightforward and easy to batch for a crowd.

A simple house syrup for adding heat and sweetness to cocktails, highballs, and hot drinks. Best used fresh and kept refrigerated.

In this low-proof spin on the Manhattan, sweet vermouth and rye switch places; the former acting as the base spirit and the latter as the modifier. Small measures of amontillado sherry and dry vermouth add complexity and balance.

This is my kind of daiq 😮‍💨

What should I make next? Let me know below.

Cheers y’all.

This one sits right at the intersection of whiskey, Cognac, and coffee. Inspired by the classic Spanish Carajillo, this Old Fashioned–style riff leans warm, rich, and just slightly sweet, making it perfect for batching and keeping on hand in the freezer.

Built with rye for structure, Cognac for roundness, and a split of coffee liqueur and Licor 43 for depth and subtle vanilla, this is the kind of cocktail that works just as well after dinner as it does late at night.

Batch it once, forget about it, and pour when needed.

Cheers, y'all!

The perfect serving for the perfect seasonal cocktail #ad21+

A Vesper is already a bold, spirit-forward martini but together with my friends at @WeberRanchVodka, I wanted to give you a seasonal rendition with a slightly different edge thanks to its agave base, which brings a subtle sweetness and soft herbal note that works especially well with dry vermouth and citrus.

A flask is the way to go here, the addition of spruce tips and juniper comes through in place of the traditional gin and really let’s the earthy notes in #WeberRanch shine with the bonus of adding that cozy holiday feeling around this time of year. It’s a great make-ahead option when you want a martini that pours clean and consistent every time.

As an added bonus, this cocktail can pull double duty, make sure to check out Jordan’s (@highproofpreacher) version for a lighter, crisp rendition by adding a few simple ingredients!

Cheers, y’all!

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!

Some cocktails are better when they're ready before you need them.

This Flasked Spiced Pear Boulevardier is built for two. Perfect for a cozy date night in or passing it around the firepit with friends as the air starts to cool. WhistlePig 10 Year Rye is the backbone here, bringing bold spice, oak, and a touch of sweetness that plays perfectly with spiced pear and rich sweet vermouth. It's a balanced, rye forward fall sipper that only gets better once it's batched and rested.

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!

A Spiced Pear Old Fashioned is exactly the kind of drink that feels right this time of year — warm whiskey, a little cinnamon, and that subtle pear sweetness that makes the whole thing feel both seasonal and easy to sip. This one leans on Whiskey Jypsi Tribute for its richness and rounds out with a spiced pear liqueur that adds depth without making it overly sweet.

Cheers, y'all!
