Scotch Mule

Cocktails carrying smoke from mezcal, peated Scotch, or a flamed element. Smoky drinks are bold and atmospheric.

Smoky

Cocktails with heat from chili, ginger, horseradish, or hot sauce. Spicy drinks deliver a kick that wakes up the palate.

Spicy

Cocktails finished with sparkling wine, soda, tonic, or ginger beer. Effervescence adds lift, a dry edge, and a refreshing feel.

Effervescent

Cocktails designed to cool and revive — light, bright, and often long. Refreshing drinks shine in summer and warm weather.
