Born in Florence from a request for a stiffened-up Americano, the classic Negroni’s recipe is, beautifully, not one you have to jot down. But it’s gotten so popularthat its name has ballooned beyond a specific drink order—“Negroni” over the years has ascended to that rarified air of inspiring its very own genre! And with endless riffs on the drink (along with pristine classic versions), special deals, and charitable giving, Imbibe and Campari’s Negroni Week hasbeen a hugely successful spotlight for this magical ruby-red muse. This week, the initiative is ready to roar once more. From September 18–24, you can check out a participating Negroni Week venue in your neck of the woods—but don't forget to enjoy a few S&S Negronis in the comfort of home! To kick off the festivities, the first 200 to use code NEGRONIwith any $35+ order from the Make More Storethat includes the Danger Juice Kit, Pacific Negroni Kit, or Frutta e Fiori Kit (which comes with lots of other Negroni-themed goodies) will receive a complimentary enamel Negroni pin—our special gift to you, while limited supplies last! Use it to decorate your favorite jacket or bag, or as a super-sweet gift for aNegroni-loving friend. GET YOUR NEGRONI ON So what are you waiting for? Let’s celebrate Negroni Week with three twists on the classic formula! We’ve taken the vibes from Turin to the tropics with the subscriber-favorite Danger Juice(restocked numerous times since 2019due to popular demand, it’s the perfect Negroni for first-timers and connoisseurs alike!). Though it bears a foreboding name, its creator says that hitting a balance so perfectly drinkable it’s called dangerous is the ultimate compliment! Sun-soaked and free-wheeling, this is a summer look for gin and Campari, and they’ve never appeared more radiant. And during Negroni Week, 10% of sales from each of these kits will be donated to Slow Food. With touches of tropicality and a buttery finish, the Pacific Negroni showcases the potential for this drink to depart Italy to points far and wide, boasting the nutty taste of pandan leaf and coconut fat–washed Campari. Jungly and mellow, this duo blends with the botanicals of gin and a rinse of pimento bitters for a sensationally warming flavor. Sip yourself Southeast-ward and ponder: Where will the Negroni go next? And during Negroni Week, 10% of sales from each of these kits will go to Slow Food. TheFrutta e Fiorinods to an idyllic evening in any old place with the tart and juicy combination of strawberries and hibiscus tea–infused gin, but the bright, approachable cocktail pointedly returns to “the boot” with a whisper of basil aroma and balsamic vinegar. Tart, fruity, floral, and bitter . . . it’s an all-new balancing act for the noble Negroni. This limited-edition kit includes all theingredients for 4 rounds of the Frutta e Fiori, plus 2 pink ribbons, The Pink Agenda reusable straw and straw cleaning brush, Speed Rack bandana, Campari enamel pin, Campari recipe book, Campari double glassware gift set, and a Carpano one-size-fit-all pair of socks! We’re donating $59 from sales of each Frutta e Fiori Kit to The Pink Agenda. CELEBRATE NEGRONI WEEK! And to make sure you have everything on hand for the best Negroni Week yet, there’s free shipping for a limited time on Campari as well as theCampari + ginset on Curiada (plus anything you put in your cart along with them!).

October’s Box: Mezcalloween’s Thrilling Third Round

It’s alive! IT’S ALIVE!! It was a recent dark and stormy night when the beakers bubbled over and the comically oversized switch was flipped, shooting sparks everywhere and slowly reanimating the most magical and monstrous occasion of all: Mezcalloween. So far we’ve somehow survived two eerie installments, but we offer no guarantees when three more thrilling concoctions arrive on your doorstep to stalk your cocktail hours all October long—especially with an eye-opening spirit like mezcal playing puppet master. But we must admit, it wasn’t just the holiday-hybrid pun that led to such a strong annual, seasonal showcase for mezcal. Over time, as awareness and curiosity grew among those adventurous souls brave enough to push through early gimmicks like worms or even scorpions in bottles, the reward and enjoyment of a spirit that has as much bold flavor as it does versatility became clear for all to see. There’s the freedom to tamp down the roasted, smoky edge with brightness, lean into it to create something fierce, or simply sub it into countless recipes and bring a pronounced agave flavor to a classic of your choice. Blessed be the three bartenders who join our coven each year to create such deliciously bone-chilling blends—a mission that’s now taken on a new imposing form as a terrifying trilogy. So if you prefer your treats to have a few tricks up their sleeves (read to the end to see the not-so-nefarious-news regarding Golden Tickets!), tear open your Mezcalloween III: A Shocker in Oaxaca Box and see all the many satisfying ways that mezcal suits these quite-spooky times. Subscribe now through September 30th (while supplies last!) to get yours—it’s slated to ship the week of October 2nd. SIGN ME UP! Only by killing the Paloma as we know it could agave-spirits expert Sam Jimenez bring it back to life—bigger and bolder than before! With the amplifying addition of hibiscus, Sam works his dark magic on the citrus synergy of orange, lime, and Betty Buzz Sparkling Grapefruit. Thankfully revived to roam free with a rim of charred tortilla salt, the lively but lumbering Paloma Muerta might become an all-too common sight around your household going forward. Read more... One major benefit of putting on a big brunch bash in the month of October? No threat of vampires or other nocturnal nuisances showing up and making your guests quiver over their quiches. Stacey Swenson’s Red-Handed Ripper—featuring Longbottom & Co. Virgin Mary mix, dill pickle shrub, super lime juice, optional jalapeño essence, and a smoked salt-chili blend—is a perfect choice for such carefree midday celebration. But the turned-up volume on the traditional Bloody Mary formula from mezcal’s roasted qualities and such bracing, refreshing flavors will summon you to sneak a taste elsewhere around the clock. Read more... “The Modern Mixologist” Tony Abou-Ganim has been charting mezcal’s rise from the beginning and his Big BOO lays out a test to see what happens when mezcal teams up with a host of flavors traditionally reserved for old fashioneds centered on barrel-aged brown spirits: vanilla, cinnamon, clove, a hint of cherry, and chicory pecan bitters. The results? Big, boo-tiful, and not a fright in sight!Read more... Subscribing to S&S for the first time?Don’t forget to use codeSPOOKY15for $15 off your subscription!

Did you know there’s a great podcast for us cocktail lovers, and it even won Tales of the Cocktail Foundation’s 2023 Spirited Award for Best Broadcast, Podcast, or Online Video Series!? The Speakeasy podcast began in 2011 as a series of interviews between host Damon Boelte and esteemed guests from the bar and spirits industries. The show has continued since, collecting a pair of cohosts—Sother Teague and Greg Benson—and expanding the mission to offer a 360-degree view of the current state of their business. Everything you want to know about the wheres, hows, and whys of what’s in the glass, these three have most likely covered it. Sother and Greg acceptingThe Speakeasy’s Spirited Award! When it came time to plan our upcoming box, the three voices behind it topped the list! And, considering the show’s title—why not travel back in time to honor the spirit of that era, while we’re at it?! The name of the game back in the early 1900s was low overhead and even lower awareness. The quieter the cocktail sipping—ones mainly made from bootlegged or bathtub-derived spirits—the better. And the speakeasy is a tradition that continues on to this day. Establishments currently exist around the world where you may need to navigate a repurposed public lavatory, a flower shop refrigerator, or even the scoreboard at an MLB stadium to gain entry. To tap into this mindset of hush-hush hideaways, follow the three hosts to The Speakeasy Box, where they’re whipping up gin cocktails that have some conceptual roots in the past, but are packed with a forward-thinking creativity that can only exist in the ’20s of today. No password, no nondescript brick wall to push, just some easygoing and delicious gin fun right to your door! Subscribe nowthrough August 31st to get yours—it’s slated to ship the week of September 5th. SIGN ME UP! The gin and tonic. Where there’s fresh air, a sliver of a sunset, and an open bar, it’s difficult to ever pass up such a refreshing pick-me-up. Damon Boelte’s G&T relies on gin and an elite tonic to bring those best-party-ever vibes. But his next clever turn won’t go unnoticed: swapping out the single lonely citrus wedge for a warming wave of tropical, buttery-sweet pandan and banana. The Pan-Dana Tonic is ready to switch your next gathering from repetitious to roaring! Read more... The days of slapdash spirit-making and furtively flavoring your homemade gin are thankfully over. But as the amazingly aromatic Bathtub Old Fashioned proves, it’s still a tasty exercise to take in mind the bouquet of botanicals in your gin and then pitch in some of your own to match. To honor those maverick mixologists of yore, Greg Benson’s strategy is also firmly more is more—thyme-rooibos syrup, hopped pear bitters, aloe, and a thyme-rosemary spritz! Read more... Sother Teague’s Bear Hatis a master stroke of bright fruit flavor served either daintily chilled and up in a Nick & Nora glass or warm in an Irish coffee mug or discreet teacup—which will help throw off any nosey parkers or prying special agents! The cocktail—a nod to one of the world’s most beloved bruins who always kept a marmalade sandwich in his hat for emergencies—certainly includes that irresistible orange jam, along with gin, a salted Ceylon-citrus syrup, drops of vanilla extract, and grated nutmeg.Read more...

You may have seen this countdown video around recently—hopefully it built some suspense. And now we’re ready to unveil the big surprise: We’re launching on Amazon! This is a big step for us, and we couldn’t be more grateful for your help with getting us here. As you know, Shaker & Spoon is on a mission to make the at-home cocktail experience better for everyone. And while, as an independent small business, we’ve sent some shade Amazon’s way over the years, we know we can’t keep avoiding them if we truly want to live up to our mission. After all, Amazon accounts for almost 40% of all Internet sales, and, in today’s economic climate, we simply can’t afford not to take advantage of that opportunity. If you’re a regular Amazon shopper, we would so appreciate you supporting us even further by making a purchase from one of our new Amazon listings and leaving a review so that other cocktail enthusiasts can discover the Shaker & Spoon magic themselves, and to help ensure that the quality of our products—which we take great pride in—is represented accurately. We truly appreciate your continued support, it means everything to us! SUPPORT S&S ON AMAZON! Please feel free to order any of these fan-favorite syrups and leave a review of your tried and tested experience(s) with them! (Heads up: they may have a different name on Amazon in order to widen their reach as broadly as possible, but they’re the same S&S syrups you know and love!) It may have gotten a name makeover, but our Spiced Old Fashioned Syrup is still the classic winter spice syrup that our community has been raving about for years. Stock up on the 16 oz bottles available on our Amazon listing, and never deal with a ho-hum old fashioned ever again! What you may know as the cilantro-jalapeño syrup is now going by Herbaceous Margarita Syrup on Amazon! Perfect for making more Last Night I Dreamed cocktails, or experimenting with your own non-traditional margs (and perfect for batching in advance, too!). For the spritz lovers out there, we’ve got 16 oz bottles of thePeach Lavender Syrup from the Puttin’ on the Spritz 2: Italian Affair Box! A series of fantastically fruity and floral cocktail hours will unfold with new best flavor friends peach and lavender. Not only is our Spiced Prickly Pear Hibiscus Syrup the key ingredient for the Sepal & Spice cocktail from our Ginuary Box, but with a whopping 96 servings per 16 fluid ounces, you’ve got plenty of room to play around with other mixes! (A prickly pear margarita, anyone?) Looking for a way to transition your love of matcha from day to night? This Rich Matcha Syrup is just the key to add that deliciousness to an evening cocktail! For our matcha-heads out there, you can now bookend your day with your fav green tea powder ;) The deep richness of our cafecito syrup is spreading its wings beyond the La Trova Old Fashioned from which it originated! There’s no denying that the Espresso Syrup is perfect for an Espresso Martini. Who couldn’t use a good grenadine in their home bar? Even better—how about one that has an elevated complexity a la S&S? Keep your bar cart well-stocked with this Cran-Juniper Grenadine, originally featured in the Kick Back with Cognac Box! Though we’ve updated the name, old pros like you will recognize this Gingerbread Syrup as the pepper cake syrup featured in our Steeped in Vodka 2 Box! If you’re a fan of warm spices, then the possibilities with this versatile and punchy syrup are nearly endless. Originally called the spiced mojo syrup from the Añejo, Let’s Go! Box, this Spiced Demerara Syrup is chock full of baking spices, with accents of vanilla and black peppercorn. Equally comfortable in an old fashioned or a hot toddy, it answers the age-old question: “Why not both?” Planning to entertain as we move through the dog days of summer? Craving something a bit sweet and a bit tart and more than a bit refreshing? Look no further than the Hibiscus Syrup from the Mediterranean Sunset punch! You can also keep this one all to yourself to play around with your own concoctions—we promise not to tell your guests ;) Are we the only ones thirsty now?! 🤤 We hope you have a great time with this sneak peek of our next adventure, and as always—we’re so appreciative of your support!

Garden parties are a beautiful summertime treat, but come August, conventional wisdom’s always been that the pool rules and the beach is king. If ourSummer Scotchseries has taught us anything, though, it’s that those one or two steps away from the standard can make all the difference. For two boxes now, we’ve brought our buddy low- to no-peat Scotch to the summer bash, an all-new shades-and-slides look for a spirit that was hesitant to even loosen the necktie. And what a welcome sight it was to see how its aged malt and strong oaky kick helped shine a light on bright ingredients typically reserved for light rums and agave spirits. So allow us another sly sidestep as we dry off, swing the garden gates open, and play with the spirit in ways that showcase the glorious natural side of the season! By this time of year, our plots are teeming with a bounty of the best-looking herbs, fruit, and flowers around—and so too are the cocktails of theSummer Scotch 3 Box, a celebration of all things fresh and lively that’ll have lap-swimmers and land-lovers alike looking quite delighted!

Flowers, flowers, everywhere, as far as the eye can see: in Scotland where ling heather turns entire mountainsides a pleasing shade of purple, and in this tall sparkler that bar- and garden-tender Keyatta Mincey Parker has packed with petals. In The Floral Guards, a simple whisk(e)y soda’s been gifted a stunning bouquet of hibiscus syrup and lavender bitters for bright color and flavor with a showering spritz of rosemary and thyme on top!Read more... There’s no sting to be found in the soft and delicateBee About Itfrom John Codd, a West Coast bar vet with a love for interesting flavor combinations and old fashioneds. The experience is Scotch-based, honeyed, and botanical-driven, created here by honey-sage syrup, lemon bitters, and floating drops of sage-infused olive oil, which heightens the aroma and adds li’l bits of lush texture very much worth buzzing about! Read more... Island lover? Well, Scotland has almost 800 of them to choose from, though they may not be the kind that inspire steel drum and straw-sipping fantasies. The Torridon from Caer Maiko (currently a Top Four 2023 nominee for Tales of the Cocktail’s US Bartender of the Year Spirited Award!)contains popular elements of such tropical tipples, but heads inland to toughen up and suit more moody and craggy coastlines. The cocktail kicks off with an infusion of Scotch and dried pineapple, which gets stirred with apricot-peach syrup, lemon bitters, and allspice.

A Mojito Recipe 🌿 And A Rec From Award-winner Sother Teague!
Hey sale! Happy National Mojito Day! As we get set to sip, we’re sharing a special note for you from our own Sother Teague (of Amor y Amargo and I’m Just Here for the Drinks), who’s got a rum recommendation for your mojito and more (recipe below)! Sother says: Copalli Rum is a delicious Belizean rum that’s at the cutting edge of sustainable practice. Their newly built facility is state of the art and designed to minimize the impact the rum has on the environment. And where it comes to flavor, Copalli has three expressions that are all delicious. A crisp white rum perfect for all your daiquiri needs, a rested rum for mai tais and old fashioneds, and finally a cacao expression that’ll satisfy your after-dinner needs. As Sother mentions, this craft rum is the product of Copalli’s social and environmental mission. Their purpose is to preserve the rainforest by providing the people of southern Belize with rewarding work and a way for them to support their families without relying on the logging industry, which was destroying the region’s rainforest and disrupting the biodiversity of the fragile ecosystem. In fact, Jordie Ho-Shue (from our Rum’s the Word Box) recently shared with us in an interview that: The only brand job I’ve ever really felt was purpose driven formewas when I worked with Copalli. I felt really good about where they were coming from when it came to wanting to create a lot more parity in the rum industry and for the people working within it. Making sure that they were setting a new standard for working conditions and that they weren’t resting on their laurels. TRY COPALLI (WITH FREE SHIPPING!) The heart of the Copalli Rum is fresh-pressed sugar cane juice, extracted on site, from organic heirloom sugar cane sustainably grown on their tree farm, adjacent to their tree distillery (we love a farm to glass moment!). The second ingredient is rainwater, courtesy of the semi-tropical climate, which is carefully collected without disrupting the habitat. The third and final ingredient is non-GMO yeast. This is used to initiate the fermentation of the combined rainwater and sugar cane juice at the start of distillation. Is your mouth watering yet? Let’s get to the mojitos! INGREDIENTS 8–10 fresh mint leaves2 oz Copalli White Rum3/4 oz lime juice (or lime oleo citrate!)3/4 oz simple syrup1 oz soda water1 mint sprig bouquet INSTRUCTIONS 1. If your fridge makes crushed ice, skip to step 2. If not, make enough by hand to fill a highball glass. Do not use a blender. Fill a Ziploc freezer bag (or Lewis bag) with ice cubes, cover with a towel, then slowly crush the ice with a wooden mallet or other blunt object. Easy does it! You want small shards of ice, not a slushie. Set aside. 2. Place the mint leaves in the bottom of a collins glass. Add the syrup and gently muddle the mint to release its oils and aroma. 3. Add the lime juice, Copalli White Rum, and soda water and gently stir to combine. Gradually add crushed ice until the glass is full. 4. For the aromatic finishing touch, top with the mint sprig bouquet. If you’d like to mix one up along with Sother, be sure to check out the recording of our Rum Talk with Sother Teague Happy Hour, where we also make other rum cocktails, taste all the Copalli expressions, and answer your burning rum-related questions! So grab your bottle of Copalli and mix up a mojito along with us! Cheers,The Shaker & Spoon Team No longer want to receive these emails? .

July’s Box: It’s The Summer Of Pisco Dancing!
🪩🪩🪩͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ ͏ Hey sale! Getting hot enough for ya?! The dog days of summer are certainly on their way. But if you’re filling out a top five of icy cocktail favorites that help cut through the rising temperatures, chances are there’s a spirit that’s not on your list. The big boom for pisco—regularly forecasted but never quite materializing—might actually now be on the horizon. The numbers are on the up over the last few years as people’s tastes have veered more global—and how could they not, with one taste of such unblemished beauty. One reason that popularity might continue to surge is this priority the traditional process places on the pure expression of the grape. But you know what else is going to help pisco fever to take hold? Cocktails! There are a few longtime favorites that keep it a staple on shelves, but the potential for a clear spirit with a shimmeringly smooth and subtle fruity backbone can be so much more. And you can get to know it a lot better in next month’s scorching-hot Pisco Inferno Box—bound to be a certified-platinum smash hit! Subscribe now through June 30th (while supplies last!) to get yours—it’s slated to ship the week of July 3rd. SIGN ME UP! When we say “pisco,” you (will likely) say “sour!” This classic cocktail—created in Peru circa 1920 by an American expat—somehow has stronger name recognition than its indispensable spirit! Sother Teague, ever the tasteful tinkerer, has some additional flavors in mind that pair excellently with the great subtle grapeness of the base. Without a Country treats pisco to the familiar velvety froth of egg white (with a suggestion for a vegan alternative), and then grabs some items from the global pantry, such as almondy island-spiced falernum syrup, Som pineapple Szechuan pepper cordial, and creole bitters.Read more... Thanks to Lima-born Enrique Sanchez, the traditional “purple month” celebration honoring the patron saint of Peruvians can now be tapped into year-round. The masses await you to join in spirit by stirring up this cocktail featuring a beverage that’s enjoyed around the clock in the country: chicha morada. A boldly hued brew of purple corn, fruit peels, and spices, it has a mellow taste, often likened to mulled wine with its subtly dry tannic edge. However, it’s but one ingredient in the Mes Morado cocktail, which links it up with a veritable parade of pisco, pineapple gum syrup, and a touch of complex and bitter Underberg digestif.Read more... The incredible unoaked lightness of pisco grants some space to play with accompaniments that add richness and depth in the old fashioned cocktail format—something Chris Hannah, the 2022 Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Awards US Bartender of the Year, was eager to do with his Barranco. Fig was chosen as the star of the syrup to ably pitch in those warming qualities. But special mention must be paid to its dashing brand of bitters—Bitter Queens Caribbean Spice—which shoots off various pops of flavor fireworks corresponding to each part of its tropical, citrusy, floral, and spiced bouquet, a sensation extended for even longer in time thanks to the undiluting power of a coconut water ice cube!Read more...

We’ve got you covered with a curated Father’s Day Collection that features cocktail kits for everyone's tastes. Or, if you’d like a personalized recommendation based on your dad’s tastes, simply reply to this email letting us know hislikes and dislikes. One of our Customer Experience Specialists will respondwith your customized recommendation! SHOP FATHER’S DAY Just like its musical influence, the fan-favorite cocktail Pancho and Lefty (remix) is a memorable study of two sides. In the glass, you’ll find that both teams within Tennessee whiskey—the faint char and sweet—aren’t in a duel, but a dance made even more delicious by this recipe. We’ve turned the volume up on both, with smoked pecan wood coalescing with the spirit’s other wood elements, and bright peach and maple syrup lifting up its notes of vanilla and caramel. In the end, it’s a warming and summery taste—akin to a grilled peach—and an easygoing companion to happily bring back to camp. What happens whenWine Enthusiast’s 2018 Mixologist of the Year Sother Teague gets his hands on a towering titan of vodka cocktails? A marvelous Mary that’s miles away from the ordinary in both composition and mixing technique! It’s bright and refreshing and yet has savory surprises at every turn. ForThe Weekender, we’ve develoed a flavor-packed secret weapon: a garden-infused vinegar medley that joins apple cider vinegar with tomato vinegar and infuses the blend with horseradish, garlic, and black pepper. Roll it back and forth between shaker and glass along with vodka and an umami-rich, vegetarian-friendly, tomato-vine-ripe base, with space to spare, if you like, for our favorite local hot sauce (Kimchili included) or one of your own. And for the garnish? Why choose just one when you can enjoy “everything”—a finishing-touch seasoning blend that travels a short distance from the bagel right to this Bloody! With touches of tropicality and a buttery finish, the Pacific Negroni—created by Tales of the Cocktail’s 2020 U.S. Bartender of the Year Kevin Diedrich, showcases the potential for this drink to depart Italy to points far and wide, boasting the nutty taste of pandan leaf and coconut fat–washed Campari. Jungly and mellow, this duo blends with the botanicals of gin and a rinse of pimento bitters for a sensationally warming flavor. Sip yourself Southeast-ward and ponder: Where will the Negroni go next? Step off a moody, rain-soaked road and follow the sounds of the piano into a dimly lit lounge for a new spin on a classic.AWeekend in Manhattantakes some liberties with ingredients to achieve the sensation of that beloved Big Apple–inspired cocktail: a rooibos-vanilla syrup and wild cherry bitters for those familiar mellowing fruit and botanical notes. And thanks to everyone’s familiarity with that profile, it’s a great opportunity to see what strapping American single malt can offer in comparison with other domestic whiskeys!

EVERYTHING YOU NEED It was a 1964 act of Congress that officially named bourbon a distinctive product of the US: “America’s Native Spirit,” as revelers have since taken to interpreting that proclamation. So what better way to mark Memorial Day than with a bourbon cocktail? Bourbon takes a citrusy spin to South Florida, where orange, lemon, ginger, and lemongrass await to brighten up your next cocktail hour over a cool mountain of ice in our fan-favorite refresher The Caloosahatchee. MORE WHISKEY COCKTAILS Indulge in the juicy delights churned out by summer fruit stands, now in cocktail form, with the Como la Mujer! This Latin-inspired highball combines mango with savory and spicy hints, a sweet rim to complement them, and a backbone of sturdy Scotch. AGAVE COCKTAILS Takethe vibes from Turin to the tropics with theDanger Juice,a Negroni riff full of fun and funkiness with bright fruit flavors deepened by accents of chocolate. Sun-soaked and free-wheeling, this is a new summer look for gin and Campari, and they’ve never appeared more radiant. MORE GIN COCKTAILS The tasty tropical Wavy Colada begins with a new slick beach body for cachaça by way of a coconut oil fat wash, and from there, the hot-weather hits keep on coming: pineapple juice, a cordial inspired by tiki idol Donn Beach’s citrus and spices mixture known as Donn’s Mix (a legendary, essential ingredient of many tiki drinks, including the original 1934 zombie recipe), and a splash of sharp and malty beer vinegar. RUM COCKTAILS The joys of basking in the great outdoors and taking your cocktails with you are too many to list. There’s just one drawback we see, though: the durability of your favorite glass in a scene of gusty breezes, wet surfaces, slippery fingers, and bare feet. Ouch! Well, fear those pesky party fouls no more and feast your eyes on this gorgeous new collection of sustainably made stackable tumblers and goblets (and dinnerware) put together by our friends at Hither Lane! OUTDOOR LIVING They are the perfect choice for portability and seemingly effortless entertaining; made of eco-friendly materials, such as bamboo, acrylic, and melamine to mimic pristine glassware, with the benefit of being scratch-resistant and shatter-proof. And they also happen to be a fantastic fit for so many of the S&S cocktails that always seem to taste better in the fresh air! If you want to stick with glass—they’ve got you covered there, too.
