Summer Sippers

By: Nightclub and Bar

It’s the beginning of June, which means warm weather is upon us. Hopefully, this also means people are flocking to your bar for a chance to enjoy the summery weather with a summery cocktail.

To capitalize on the excitement that people have from being out on the town sans winter coats, try some of the following drink recipes as specials at your bar, courtesy of the mixologists at Brown-Forman.

Who knows, with any luck, they could become staples on your menu as people seek out summertime all year long.

That punch sounds like a treat. I recently came across the Duke of Manchester Punch recipe. This is going to be the BBQ punch of choice i feel:

1 1/2 PART blackberry-infused Beefeater Gin

1/2 PART Beefeater Gin

1/2 PART Dry Vermouth

1/2 PART Sweet Vermouth

1/4 PART Cassis or blackcurrant syrup

1 PART Freshly squeezed lemon juice

1/2 PART Sugar syrup

1 PART Prosecco

METHOD Stir all ingredients, except Prosecco, with ice. Top with bubbles and garnish with seasonal fruit.
