The Cabaret Cocktail
Perfect for Valentine sipping
Hearts and flowers? Sure! But don’t forget: Your special sweetheart gets thirsty too.
So stir up amour with the Cabaret Cocktail. This smooth charmer combines gin and dry vermouth with Bénédictine liqueur and a dash of bitters. That gives it a hint of sweetness, but not too much.
Because your Valentine is sweet enough already, no?

Lamb, Lentil, and Green Chile Chili
Not the usual chili
Cold and snowy? That means it’s time for chili! Spicy and hearty = warm.
But why go for the same old same old? Today we’re using lamb and lentils – two ingredients that pair extremely well. You don’t often see them in chili, but why not? Both play beautifully with spice.
This chili would make a terrific main dish for your Super Bowl party. It’s something most people won’t expect, so it can be your own personal trick play. Sounds like a touchdown in our book.

The Eastern Sour Cocktail
A bourbon-fueled Tiki classic from Trader Vic
It’s a new year, so time to discover a new drink. Allow us to present the Eastern Sour Cocktail.
This one is a tasty mix of bourbon, orange juice, lemon juice, and orgeat syrup. Which makes it perfect for winter, we think. All that citrus has to be great for combating colds and flu.
To your health!
