Fall means football season and that means it’s time for tailgating. There’s no better person to get you ready for a tailgate than our friend Whiskey Pete Wagner from Brown-Forman. Pete gave Archie and the Qfm96 listeners several new beverage options to try while gearing up for the next game. Check out the recipes below:
- Quarterback Sneak – 1.5oz Jack Daniel’s Tennesee Fire, .5oz lemon-lime soda, and 3oz cranberry juice. Garnish with a lime wedge.
- Coopers’ Craft 1-2 punch – it’s a beer cocktail featuring 1.5oz Cooper’s Craft Bourbon 100, .5oz lemon juice and .5oz grapefruit juice, .5oz citrus simple syrup, and 3oz of your favorite pilsner or IPA.
- Finlandia Vodka Cold Brew Cocktail – 1.5oz Finlandia Vodka, 2oz of coffee liqueur, and 3oz of your favorite cold brew coffee. This drink is a great alternative for early risers who are not fans of Bloody Marys.
- Herradura Cobbler Smash – 2oz Herradura Silver Tequila and 2oz cinnamon simple syrup, and 4oz cranberry juice.
Archie even gave Pete a drink to try for his tailgating which includes sweet tea and a shot of Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Honey!
There you have it, five SIMPLE cocktails with easily accessible ingredients to try at home or your next football party and the recipes could not be easier! Please remember to drink responsibly wherever you’re celebrating this football season.
