Remember To Pack That Lost Shaker Of Salt

Wandering Barman
Botanical Margarita
Tequila, Marigold, Makrut Lime, Orange Bitters
20% ABV
100 ml
Brooklyn, NY

Light yellow-green (more on the yellow side). Sniffing and there’s a blend of lemon/lime/orange along with cardamon, a childhood greenery smell of wild flowers & my mom’s marigolds that we picked and let them reseed & spread every year, and a light mineral smell Mondariz natural sparkling water. Sipping and my tastebuds are alert and tingling from all of the scents. The lime/lemon/orange is joined along with a bitter zest bite, a cane sugar kiss with a salty wink, and a background tequila good sizzle/burn. It’s all around a pop of vibrant joyful life.

Pairs with Cheez-It’s: just don’t

This truly is a party in a tiny bottle, but I’ve just noticed on their site if you want to celebrate a little extra, they now have a 750 ml that’s ready to go. All you need is to pack that “lost shaker of salt”. 🍋🍋‍🟩🧂

Mysterious Little Dove

Straightaway Cocktails
Paloma
Sparkling Tequila Cocktail
10% ABV
Portland, OR
Co-founders: Cy Cain & Casey Richwine

Straw yellow with a green sheen. Sniffing and there’s a fun blur of Froot Loops,lemons, tangerines, limes, tinge of grapefruit, and a tiny hint of wisteria that may blends into citrus blossoms. First few sips are like one last piece of summer that can easily morph into fall. There’s lemon, lime, pomelo, mild grapefruit or as they say Squirt, a bit of dry seltzer, honeysuckle stamen, tamarind, a warm spice like a mild peppercorn that’s lip vibrating, and a salt pinch at last.

Pairs with Cheez-Its: THIS IS A HARD NO

Ah Paloma…you pretty mysterious little dove. The more I search for you the less I find. Were you born in the 50s by a Don Javier Delgado Corona creation or not as he claims. Was it Squirt that gave you your first spark? Are you named after the folk song, “La Paloma”? Am I over thinking this as usual…yes. 🤣 No matter the true tale, Straightaway’s portable version just soars, and takes you along for a fun, bright ride. 🕊️

Searchin’ For My Lost Shaker of Salt

Frozen Margarita
Acquired at Sugarburg
Made with love

A tall takeaway glass of frosty yellow. Sniff and it’s citrus candy. Pop in the straw and again citrus candy that becomes tart and white pepper thrown in. Then there’s that tequila kick and small burn! This is so so delicious on this sweaty hot day, and I know I should only drink one because boy, this is strong.

Pairs with Cheez-It’s: Heightens the white pepper and the tequila!

Ok, this is fun and I didn’t have to think a lot, and after one or two of these you won’t be able to either. Also pairs really well with Sugarburg’s Throwback Burger. Now that’s a mini-staycation for me. Happy holiday weekend y’all!
