Dinner idea 💡 Have you tried our winter ski lodge menu at the distillery? No lift ticket required for this BLY salad — that’s (candied) Bacon, Lettuce, (spiced) Yams — and oysters with gin-and-tonic jelly. ⛷🏂❄️ #distillery
Need a cocktail recipe for tonight? 💝 Berry Brambler is a V-Day hero: easy to make, easy to drink, and dessert-y but not at all heavy. It’s just our Bramble black raspberry vodka plus our Songbird Coffee Liqueur shaken together - both spirits are so packed with flavor (real black raspberries! real hibiscus! real @hopscotchcoffee beans!), they do all the heavy lifting when it comes to making cocktails. . BERRY BRAMBLER 2.5 ounces Cardinal Spirits Bramble ¾ ounce Cardinal Spirits Songbird Coffee Liqueur 1 dash orange bitters Orange peel, for garnish Combine Bramble and coffee liqueur in a shaker, then add ice. Shake well, then strain into a coupe glass. Express oil from the orange peel by pinching it rind-side down over the cocktail, then garnish with the peel. . #distillery #craftdistillery #recipe #cocktailrecipe #coffeeliqueur #bramble #fromscratch #madeinindiana #coffeecocktail #foundmyspirit #cardinalspirits #bloomingtonindiana #visitbtown
Who wants to jet off with us & sip this beauty at @opheliany? Made with our Tiki Rum, Nardini Amaro, Creme de Frais, raspberries, coconut cream, pineapple, strawberry dust, rose bud, and chocolate chips. Whoa. It’s called Hers, and if any of our NYC pals try it on V-Day, you must let us know! 📷 @amirbabayoff . #distillery #craftdistillery #midwestmade #madeinindiana #tikirum #nyc #nycbars #nyccocktails #drinkstagram #liqpic #foundmyspirit
Valentine’s Day is Thursday. You knew that. But. In case you didn’t, and you’re scrambling for plans of the low-key variety: our bar seats will be open for walk-in guests who want cocktails/dessert *only* ... 5-10pm on Thurs 2/14. The featured dessert is a lovely Lemon Verbena Olive Oil Cake, and you’ll be treated to live jazz from @zacharyfinneganmusic & Nico Martinez. 💖 Staying in? Shake it up. This cocktail is called Rassle Dassle Rose, a @kevinhinkle throwback made with our Tiki Rum, raspberries, and orgeat — recipe is on our site! 📷 @annapowellteeter
