Here’s a treat for all you gin imbibers out there. A citrus-filled cocktail that will be perfect for that last family gathering before you send everyone home from this holiday weekend. Gin is sharing center stage with Cointreau for this one. However, I once again am going to change it up and replace it with […]

After having a day either gouging yourself with food and preparing it, the last thing you want to do is prepare a cocktail that will take some time to make.

Usually I would be talking about Wednesday being hump day. But, due to Thanksgiving being tomorrow, this is pretty much the end of the work week for most. I have found another nice after-dinner cocktail for you to try out for your guests. This is a classic, one that has been around since the 1920s […]

Drink of the Day: Apple Pie Cocktail

November 25, 2014 | By Shaun the Bartender |

Here’s a great aperitif for you for the coming holiday weekend. It uses an ingredient that’s been used since the colonial era of the United States. Applejack is a great ingredient, one you rarely see in today’s cocktails. You will question why once you taste this drink. A perfect compliment to the main act […]

Ah yes, a nice relaxing Saturday to start off in my world. Hopefully , you are having the same. Here’s a nice little treat for you scotch imbibers today. A nice, smooth beverage that is a nice alternative to the scotch whisky on the rocks. I think you will agree that it brings out the […]

So happy it’s Friday! For most, it means it’s time to take off the stress of a work week and get in to relaxation mode; a time to settle down and refuel for a couple days. With it being the weekend before the Thanksgiving holiday, it also means getting ready to plan for family and […]

Tequila drinks are common in summertime cocktails. But, you never hear about them in dessert style drinks. Here’s one I think you will enjoy. The combination of agave and chocolate should be done more often. I think you will agree when you taste this cocktail for the first time. Plus, an added bonus - we […]

Here’s a cocktail that will be perfect when taking a break from skiing and you need a little pick me up. This is a knock-off of the Colorado Bulldog, where you have a combination of vodka and kahlua. Here, the vodka is taken out of the equation and peppermint schnapps is put in its place. […]
