Le Beaujolais Nouveau est arrivé! Just a few days ago, we celebrated the 2020 release of Beaujolais Nouveau, an annual celebration on the third Thursday of every November. This wine from the Gamay variety has origins in post-WWII France when wineries were cash-poor.

A crisp, tart, and refreshing twist on the classic daiquiri, famously enjoyed by writer Ernest Hemingway. Unlike the traditional version, this cocktail swaps out sugar for maraschino liqueur, balancing the bright acidity of fresh lime and grapefruit juice with a hint of sweetness. A timeless favorite that delivers a bold yet smooth citrusy kick, perfect for warm weather sipping.

The Gold Standard sets the bar for excellence. The heavy combo of sugarcane spirits creates a golden hue, and the fresh lime and syrup adds sweet and citrus flavors. Move over Mai Tai, we have a new rumtastic cocktail in house.
