In the world of bourbon , plenty of hype surrounds rare, highly allocated, and expensive bottles. This is understandable. After all, it’s fun to brag about the bottle of Pappy 23 you snagged at a charity auction or that you landed the long-elusive final bottle needed to complete your Blanton’s horse topper collection. It’s even more delightful to share these gems with other whiskey fans.
There is debate as to when the Old Fashioned was invented – but no debate that it is experiencing a revival. And for good reason, the Old Fashioned is simple and so tasty. With our current love of brown spirits, being able to make a proper Old Fashioned is a necessary and appreciated skill. Watch the video here…. Made of sugar, bitters, water, whiskey, citrus peel, and ice – the variations are endless.
Asking a bartender to name the most influential craft cocktail bar of all time is a heavy question bordering on unfair. Asking them to name their “Mount Rushmore” of craft cocktail bars doesn’t lighten the load all that much, despite expanding the field from one to four. So when I recently asked six acclaimed bartenders what bars were on their Mount Rushmore, most responded with a request for a few days to marinate on their choices.

We have all had the frozen, sweet concoction that is called a daiquiri. But that is not what a daiquiri is meant to be. A true daiquiri is a classic: elegant, timeless, and perfect for almost every occasion. Watch how to make the daiquiri here… The classic daiquiri is made of rum , lime , and sugar — as simple as that. However, it’s the details that make this drink so special.
This past week, the IWSR released survey data confirming that — contrary to popular belief — Generation Z is drinking just as much as older generations. Slipping sales have affected many facets of the alcohol industry, and the perpetual narrative is that Gen Z is to blame. But this assumption speaks to a larger problem in the business at large: The industry is looking outward to justify the doom and gloom rather than taking responsibility for sales dips and finding ways to resonate with this new

It’s a question founders are increasingly raising to us: should some non-alcoholic ready-to-drink (RTD) brands be positioning themselves more like premium sodas? For brands selling through non-alc bottle shops, it might not feel urgent.

After all, the essence of tiki is the Daiquiri , plus spice. And the definitional tiki drink is the Planter’s Punch , a sort of oversized, rum-heavy, crushed-ice Daiquiri with some extra spice.
