Sweet rum limeade
This sweet rum limeade is one of my favorite recent drinks I’ve concocted.

Mezcal Margarita
Craving a margarita but fancier? Look no further than the Mezarita. That’s short for a Mezcal margarita (but spicy). A friend and I made this one a little special with the addition of cilantro lime syrup, which really took the flavor up a notch! Recipe is below, but here is a how-to video: For the…

Honeybee Sour — A Version of the Bee’s Knees Gin Cocktail
This is basically a fancified Bees Knees cocktail. I’m calling it, “Honeybee Sour.” We used grapefruit gin, lemon juice, almond extract, honey, an egg white and some club soda.
