We're closing out 2018 the right way—with three craft cocktails cooked up by local mixologist and "lifter of spirits" Brian Lindsay. We feature two locally-made spirits, Lass & Lions vodka and J.W. Kelly bourbon, and talk about building a cocktail program and the importance of supporting local brands.
Try these cocktails at home and drink with us! And help me name the first one.
CHAI SPICE
- 1.5 oz Lass & Lions Desire vodka (or your favorite vanilla vodka)
- 0.5 oz chai simple syrup (2 cups sugar, 1 cup water, 2 chai tea bags)
- 2 oz. cold-brew coffee
- 2 dashes orange Angostura bitters
- Ice
Pour all ingredients into a jar or shaker. Stir gently to combine. Strain into rocks glasses and enjoy.
BIG O MANHATTAN
- 2 oz. J.W. Kelly bourbon (we used Old Milford)
- 0.75 oz Big O ginger liqueur
- 1/8 oz. sweet vermouth
- Ice
Pour all ingredients into a jar or shaker. Stir gently to combine. Strain into rocks glasses and enjoy.
SMOKIN' CUBAN
- 1.5 oz Smokehead scotch
- 0.5 oz chai simple syrup (same as above)
- 2 dashes orange Angostura bitters
- Mexican Coke to top
- Squeeze of lime
Pour all ingredients straight into a rocks glass. Top with Mexican Coke. Stir gently to combine. Drink and enjoy.
