Hot Cocktails • January 2021

We thought a little focus on hot cocktails would be great for those cold Midwest nights.

London Fog | $5

1 oz New Amsterdam Gin

0.5 oz Infused Vanilla Earl Gray Tea Syrup

0.5 oz Cream

6 oz Hot Water (to top)

Drop additional Earl Gray tea bag to infuse over time

Express Orange Oils

Creamy vanilla, balanced with Earl Gray tea. A surprising combination when used with gin (our suggestion), but can also be made with vodka for a smoother treat.

Pairs well with: holding your loved one’s hands on a cold night.

Hot Toddy | $8

2 oz Four Roses Bourbon

0.5 oz Honey simple

½ Lemon juiced

6 oz Hot water (to top)

2 Dashes Aromatic Bitters

1 Cinnamon stick

Classic hot cocktail, for those blistering cold winter nights. Soothe the throat with honey and bourbon, soothe the soul at the same time. Hard to see a Wisconsin winter pass without drinking at least one glass.

Pairs well with: shoveling sidewalks and driveways.

Cocoa-Vodka Hot Chocolate | $7

1.5 oz 360 Vanilla Vodka

10g Chocolate Paste

3 oz Milk

Steam and Texture Together, top with cinnamon powder

Warm and sweet. Exactly what a boozy cocoa should be like. Served with a marshmallow on top.

Pairs well with: pretzels, salty crunchy pretzels. Dip them in if you dare.

Hibiscus Coffee | $9

Hibiscus simple

Coffee

Orange Bitters

Rum

Orange peel

Tangy, fruity, with citrus aromatics

Pairs well with: deep conversations far too late into the evening.

Mo-Heat-O | $8

1.5 oz Mount Gay Rum

1 Mint tea bag

½ Lime juiced

0.5 oz simple syrup

Top with hot water, garnished with a fresh mint leaf

Riff on the classic Mojito, turning up the heat and the puns. We suggest a small splash extra tiny-little nip of Wray & Nephew Overproof Rum, brings up this salty/brine boosting the lime acidity. But that’s just how we like it...

Pairs well with: reminiscing about summer days at the beach.
