Build Your Own Whiskey Bar for $100
Buying cocktail ingredients for your home bar without a clear strategy can be a huge waste of time and money. A liquor cabinet should be full of possibilities, not dead-ends of ingredients that you use once and still come up short for the next cocktail you attempt to whip up.
Old Growth Fashioned
Not every Old Fashioned needs to be a fruit bomb of sugar muddled with orange and cherry.
Cowabunga, Dude!
This riff on the Dude’s go-to beverage is inspired by the tropical vibes of international surfer enclaves. “Is this drink lactose-free, bra?” You bet that’s garden-fresh mint too…
Saz-Squatch
The legend of Bigfoot began in the Redwood Forests of Northern California... Back in 1958, local loggers discovered “mysteriously large” footprints and penciled a letter to the editor of the Humboldt times suggesting that they might belong to a giant humanoid creature, “Maybe we have a relative of the Abominable Snowman of the Himalayas?”
The Silk Robe Soirée
Silky smooth, aromatic and booze forward, this “on-the-rocks” lowball-cocktail beckons you to fill your sitting room with smooth jazz and have a seat in your oversized leather armchair.
Sequoia Sour
The oldest known giant sequoia is 3,200–3,266 years old. Wrap your head around THAT while you sip this sour with a cinnamon twist.
