I’ve always loved an easy ready to drink cocktail. It takes the bartending work away and all you need to do is pour over ice and enjoy. This ready to drink cocktail is produced by Boston Harbor Distillery. It’s made with their Putnam Rye Whiskey, Angostura Bitters and Demerara. It’s 35% ABV and a 375ml…

Irish Whiskey and Cocktails in a Can
OK, we’ve seen plenty of cocktails in a can but whiskey in a can? Are these any good? Let’s find out, my thoughts below. The Cocktails Post Meridiem Double Old Fashioned $3.99 (Straight Bourbon Whiskey, blend of three bitters, Demerara syrup and orange zest oil): This is at 37% ABV and at 100ml it serves…
Sagamore Spirit Rye Whiskey and Sagamore Spirit Pineapple “Ryegarita” Cocktail
Now here’s a whiskey I wasn’t sure about when I bought it. If I’m being truthful, I bought the bottle because it was affordable and because I wanted to taste the whiskey before I tried their ready-to-drink cocktail. The upside, it was a smart move. This rye is smooth. No, not revolutionary but good and…
Batch and Bottle: Glenfiddich Scotch Manhattan and Monkey Shoulder Lazy Old Fashioned
Still hot outside so bring on the cocktails! Batch and Bottle is a brand by William Grant and Sons, the company behind brands that include Glenfiddich and Monkey Shoulder. These Ready-To-Drink cocktails are 375ml and I purchased each one for $16.99. Glenfiddich Scotch Manhattan (30% ABV): On the nose you immediately get Glenfiddich. Served neat…
WhistlePig Ginger Fashioned
I spy with my little eye another WhistlePig Cocktail To-Go. This time, a Ginger Fashioned. I’ve tried their Orange Fashioned and absolutely loved it. It’s a cocktail I would certainly bring to someone’s house so they could enjoy it, but is this one just as good? This Ginger Fashioned I’d made using their 6-year PiggyBack…
Jameson Ginger and Lime
Jameson chose to enter the ready-made cocktail scene with a 6% ABV Ginger and Lime in a can. It was released on St. Patrick’s Day and is made of Jameson whiskey (off-course), natural ginger and lime flavors but the beautiful caramel color of the cocktail comes from caramel color. You get four 355ml cans for…
Handy and Schiller Signature Cocktails Barreled Old Fashioned
Saturday night we went out to dinner and sat at the bar. We’re people watchers, and while relaxing at the bar we lost count of all the Old Fashions our bartender made. At $13 a pop you can imagine the money the restaurant made that night. You’re certainly welcome to spend that much cash but,…

Now Bulleit’s Manhattan ready-made cocktail (in a bright green bottle) is being tasted and reviewed. Using their own whiskey, this Manhattan is made with straight rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, and bitters. Nose: rye…

WhistlePig Orange Fashioned
Spring finally sprang here in Boston with an amazingly warm weekend and here I am trying to grow whiskey bottles in my flower box. One can only dream! I’ve never seen this WhistlePig ready-made Orange Fashioned, which is a new take on an Old Fashioned, until a week ago. This is a pre-batched, barrel-aged cocktail…
