Jannamico Super Punch tastes like liquid fruit cake. And I’m not talking about your lovely homemade variety with dried fruit, nuts, rum, etc. I’m talking those grocery store, candied-orange monstrosities that have a shelf life longer than Pop Tarts. It also has this spicy caramel syrup quality to it. Yet, despite all of that, I […]

Upcoming TDN – Oval Vodka Vodka alone accounts for over 20% of spirits sales in the U.S. yet gets not play with the cocktail snobs.

Have a question about rum? Something as simple as how it’s made, or as obscure as what percentage of rum is produced […]

Tales of the Cocktail is anticipated, hot, and maniacally joyful. The event draws cocktail creatures of every ilk and creed to New Orleans for way too many days of imbibing and revelry. To be blunt, it’s deadly and awesome. Rad, even. Last year I posted some lessons learned from Tales of the Cocktail. Some are […]
