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
I’m always on the lookout for easy pre-made cocktails. I found this little guy on a recent visit to Whole Foods. 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,…
Putnam Barrel Aged Old Fashioned
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…
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,…
