Old-Fashioned
“What’s my favorite whiskey cocktail for winter? I’m just an old-fashioned girl. Nearly any variation makes me happy as long as the sugar component is relaxed. It makes me want a fireplace inside and snow outside.” – Mariel Burns, head bartender at Trademark Taste + Grind in New York City

“What’s my go-to budget gin and why? I have to go with Spring 44, out of Colorado. It’s a really nice gin with an even flavor profile, without going too piney nor too floral.”

“Fords Gin, hands down, a crazy good gin for a crazy price. The fact that they can pack so much flavor and so much quality in something under $30 is a steal. I’d call Ford himself and ask how he even makes money on this but I’m too afraid he’ll raise the price. Either in a 50/50 martini or just with tonic, this takes the cake for me.”

“Coffee liqueur is sexy. Mr. Black is particularly sexy. It’s Australian so it has a great accent. Why not start or end a great night with a little-buzz going? Also, it’s great with pretty much every dessert.”
