They currently offer three varieties, and I’ve managed to get two: the Black Walnut Old Fashioned and the Apple Cinnamon Old Fashioned. In this post, I’ll focus on the Black Walnut Old Fashioned. Stay tuned for a review…

Mission Craft Cocktails Old Fashioned
Keeping today’s post short and (not too) sweet—because we’re talking about this Mission cocktail. Whenever I spot a pre-made Old Fashioned, I’m all in.

Bulleit Whiskey Sour Cocktail
Just like that, September is here. To celebrate the long weekend, I treated myself to a few cocktails—one of them being the Bulleit Whiskey Sour. I think it’s one of their newer releases, but feel free to correct me if I’m wrong. Fun fact: whiskey sours were the first whiskey-based cocktail I ever tried and…

Crown Royal has been in the ready-to-drink cocktail game for a while, but I recently discovered their Whisky Lemonade—and naturally, I had to give it a try to see if it could be my go-to refreshment on those hot summer days.

Old Fashioned – Tree House Brewery
I must admit, I had absolutely no expectations for this Tree House Brewery Old Fashioned. Allow me to elaborate. I came across this Old Fashioned when I ordered their Coquito. Unfortunately, I wasn’t a fan of their Coquito. However, I want to be transparent and mention that I am a Puerto Rican who makes my…
Apple Bourbon Mule – Mixed Up Canned Cocktails
We are officially a week away from Halloween and what better way to toast than with a fall cocktail you don’t even have to make yourself. I stumbled across these at Trader Joe’s and bought a pack of 4 for $15 and it states that one can has two servings. This means there are 8…
Crown Royal Whisky Sour cocktail with Black Cherry
