Valentine’s Day is upon us.

Passion in a glass. The bright reds and oranges delight the eyes as the fresh fruit juice refreshes the palate.

You’re hand-crafting a creative cocktail, but searching for some inspiration. Did I have you at apple-cinnamon?

Fruit and ice cream are your jam. Whiskey is also your jam. It’s time they had a baby: your after-dinner aperitif to stimulate the date night appetite.

You’re here because you love mint and bourbon whiskey. Or the state of Kentucky. Or the Derby. Or pretty much anything considered a “cocktail” that can suddenly appear in your hand in the next 5 minutes.

You use cinnamon for [figuratively] everything.

‘Tis the season for all the warm, cozy, winter spiced, everything nice’d, doughy snickerdoodle, dessert kit and caboodle. The heavy creams, root veggie pies, endless coffee-flavored streams and Mexican hot cocoa supplies.

Suddenly, you’re the mixologist for the cozy get together. Or perhaps it’s date night and you’re upping your cocktail game. Maybe you’re just a hipster or an old soul who appreciates a craft beverage on the regular.
