It’s summer and honestly, it’s hot outside. Whiskey is not what I gravitate to on a warm day, but Coconut Whiskey, come on now, that is summer in a bottle screaming come drink me… so we did. Watertown Whiskey was created by Mikey Bortone who appeared on the show Survivor. That’s where he found his…

The Glenlivet Twist and Mix Old Fashioned
Last week I reviewed The Glenlivet Twist and Mix New Manhattan. This week, let’s talk about their Old-Fashioned ready-made cocktail. Like the New Manhattan, twisting the cap releases a mixture that goes into the cocktail. The Old Fashioned is also a 375ml bottle at 40% ABV and retails for $21. This cocktail is not bad…
The Glenlivet Twist and Mix New Manhattan
Glenlivet has entered the ready-made cocktail chat and have released this New Manhattan and Twist and Mix Old Fashioned. I had both today, but I’ll be talking about their Manhattan. This cocktail is made from The Glenlivet single malt Scotch and natural flavorings. What’s neat, twisting the cap releases a mixture that goes into the…

Crown Royal Blackberry Flavored Whisky
OK, so last week I was very sick and one day my husband walked in with this Crown Royal Blackberry Flavored Whisky in hand along with a few other things to make me feel better. He’s the best! For those that don’t know, to me Crown Royal Rye is still one of the best rye…
Bols Cocktails Very Old Fashioned
I saw this little guy as we were checking out and it magically ended up in my cart because I’m always on a mission to find a perfectly delicious ready-made cocktail. Also, how could I pass this up their claim that it’s the world’s oldest cocktail brand, that’s what sold it for me. This cocktail…
Wandering Barman Boomerang Old Fashioned

Wandering Barman is a brand out of Brooklyn, New York, started by previous bartenders, waiters, and restaurant managers with years of experience. Boomerang is an Old Fashioned with bourbon whiskey, Tree juice maple syrup,…
