Whiskey
Despite its name, the Fancy Whiskey keeps it simple. Using a whiskey base, a citrus orange flavor comes through with the help of triple sec, sugar, and a dash of bitters. Add an orange twist to garnish, and this cocktail creates an easy opportunity to flaunt your cocktail mixing skills without any time-consuming hoops to jump through.
Beer
This week’s cocktail squeezes some heat out of the last bit of summer. The Michelada combines the flavor of a light beer with ingredients usually found in a Bloody Mary. The beer helps tamper the heat of the cayenne pepper and hot sauce, and lime juice rounds out the savory spice of this drink. The Michelada isn’t for everyone, but we’ve found it’s best enjoyed on a late summer evening.
Whiskey
This week’s cocktail is a perfect bridge between summer and fall: the Summer Rye. Summer heat is channeled through the whiskey and St. Germain’s notes of white flowers, while the light sweetness of apple juice and champagne evoke the crisper months to come. The creative process of mixing this drink is simple yet sophisticated, and helps soothe the sting of another Michigan summer winding down.
Rum
Fans of rum punch will be delighted by the twist this Reggae Rum Punch brings. This pineapple-forward cocktail that balances the robust flavor profile of Jamaican rum with a smooth melody of strawberry and lime. Don’t wait for your next beach day to bust out this dreamy, tropical drink.
Gin
This Strawberry Basil Lemonade cocktail is a simple version of a summer classic elevated by gin and basil. Muddled strawberries and basil help bring out the herby, botanical flavor of the gin while lemonade balances the drink with a tart citrus flavor. This fruity, refreshing cocktail is an easy decision when you’re looking for an uncomplicated cocktail that still has some flair.
Gin
The magic of the Boat House Punch happens when you go with the flow and give its ingredients time to mingle into the perfect party cocktail. This cocktail balances the richness of the lemon sugar with gin, Aperol, St. Germain, and effervescent rose. From there, a combination of citrus juices keep the cocktail tangy and sweet without being too much of a knockout.
Vodka
The Jalapeño Orange Spritzer is like the perfect summer day: bright, with a little heat. This sunburst orange cocktail gets its heat from jalapeño infused vodka. The infused vodka works in harmony (not competition) with orange juice and soda water to create a cocktail worthy of your next summer celebration.

Tequila
It’s a short week after Memorial Day, so celebrate with the Cherry Lime Tequila Cocktail. It’s basically a grown-up Shirley Temple that will help you start summer on the right foot. It’s sweet, fizzy, tangy, and ready to help you relax this long weekend.
Whiskey
The Horsefeather is simple to make — so simple, in fact, that you probably already have its four ingredients in your kitchen right now. All you need is whiskey, ginger beer, lime, and bitters. With a taste similar to a Moscow Mule, this cocktail offers a strong, whiskey twist on a traditional classic. Don’t knock the lime and whiskey until you try it — trust us, it’s an unlikely pair that works!
Mezcal
The Smoky Basil Oaxacan Mezcal cocktail is what we call the grown-up version of a classic margarita. Refreshing, smoky, and aromatic, this drink is reminiscent of a backyard bonfire in the summer. It is packed with flavor from bacon salt and smoked mezcal, balanced with the freshness of basil, lime, and agave syrup. This mixture will have your taste buds on the ultimate adventure!
