VA Spirits Month Recipe: Sazerac
We’re rounding out our VA Spirits Month Recipe with a classic: The Sazerac. The Sazerac is widely regarded as the oldest known American cocktail, and seeing as Virginia is America’s oldest state–we thought it was a good fit for this project. Sazeracs are usually made with rye whiskey, but when we laid our eyes on Lost Whiskey’s High Rye Bourbon, we knew it would be just right.
VA Spirits Month Recipe: Classic Daiquiri
We’re still celebrating VA Spirits Month over here! So, naturally, we wanted to include a classic daiquiri on our cocktail list. We used Virago’s Four-Port Rum with Peach Hibiscus syrup from Crescent Simples to create our take on the daiquiri and we’re sure glad we did.
VA Spirits Month Recipe: Moonstruck Mule
Get outta here vodka mules! Moonshine is here to save the day. This recipe uses Belle Isle Shine’s Honey Habeñero Moonshine instead of the traditional vodka, and we’re never going back!
VA Spirits Month Recipe: Clover Club Cocktail
To kick off Virginia Spirits Month, we recreated this classic Pre-Prohibition cocktail. We used Silver Dolphin Gin from Three Brothers Distillery. It’s a cask-aged gin, which lends itself nicely to the flavors in the Clover Club.
It’s 5 o’clock for 30 Days! Dive into Virginia Spirits Month
You may not know it, but 2020 is a banner year for Virginia Spirits. It commemorates 400 years of distilling in Virginia. No, that’s not a typo. The first recorded distillery was founded in 1620 in Southampton, Virginia. George Thorpe stated in a letter to The Virginia Company that he made a “goode drinke of Indian corne,” aka WHISKEY! What better way to celebrate that heritage than with a boozy celebration of one of Virginia’s oldest and proudest industries? Enter Virginia Spirits Month!
