Tea Time

We are so ecstatic to be partnering with Owl's Brew on two cocktails for summer - boozy iced tea - what could be better? Is there anything that makes you think of vacation more than a Pina Colada?  And the exclusive kit we have has hints of vanilla which makes it more thirst quenching and turmeric which makes it healthy!  (ish). Or you might want to try the Owl's Brew Citrus Cooler with a lemon mint shrub that melts your mind away to a beach and cool ocean breeze. Either...

What do you want to Drink?

That's the question, right?  Or, more specifically, "what can I get you to drink?"  We all ask when people enter our home.  We want to make someone feel comfortable and at home and calm, and well, we know that alcohol, or thirst quenching water (or sparkling water) can do that.

These two kits were holiday exclusives.  A Salted Caramel Toddy and a Mulling Spiced Old Fashioned.  They exude warmth and beg for people to come together and be cozy. We had thought they were perfect for holidays, so we planned to sell them up until...

Moscow Mule

When we started Twist Your Spirits, I, being a writer, wanted all of our drinks to have clever names.  We curated the ingredients based on making all of the cocktail kits we offered a "twist" on the traditional cocktail one might find at a bar or restaurant. We went with unexpected spice, smoke or sweet.  And then we kept getting requests for a Moscow Mule.  Who doesn't love a Moscow Mule?  I love ginger.  I love the spice of ginger.  My mom loves ginger.  Alison loves ginger.  We're those people who...
