It had been a long time since I’d had anything from Bully Boy. That all changed recently when my husband told me they had released a line of canned cocktails. As soon as I heard one of them featured bourbon, I was on a mission to track them down… and thankfully, I found them. For…

Toucan Old Fashioned Cocktail
This brand caught my eye because it’s not your typical ready-to-drink cocktail that you simply pour over ice and serve. With this one, you get to play bartender for a minute, no fancy equipment required. Their whole concept is that cocktails should taste as fresh as the moment they’re made. As for the name Toucan,…

On The Rocks Spiced Pear Whiskey Sour
As the weather warms, I tend to reach for whiskey cocktails over drinking it neat. Recently, I’ve been enjoying the On The Rocks ready-to-drink lineup, and I picked up their Spiced Pear Whiskey Sour, so let’s dive in and see how it holds up. The 375 mL bottle (40% ABV) retails for $12.99 and yields…
On The Rocks: Whiskey Sour
When the weather heats up, drinking whiskey on its own can feel a bit heavy. In cocktail form, however, it makes a lot more sense—particularly when convenience is part of the equation. On The Rocks partnered with Jim Beam to bottle a ready-to-drink Whiskey Sour designed to be poured straight over ice. The question remains:…
Keeper’s Heart Old Fashioned
Keeper’s Heart Whiskey is a brand that boasts impressive Irish credentials: its distiller is the renowned Irish Master Distiller Brian Nation, formerly of Jameson, Midleton Very Rare, the Spot lineup, and Powers. As a longtime fan of this brand, the moment I discovered they’d launched a ready‑to‑serve Old Fashioned, I didn’t hesitate—I had to try…
