Dogfish Head Distilling Co. Cherry Bergamot Whiskey Sour




Dogfish Head Distilling Co. Cherry Bergamot Whiskey Sour...$11.99 / 4pk cans
Bergamot Orange doesn’t quite look like an orange ... nor taste like one now that we think about it! You may recognize its fragrant, citrusy scent and distinct flavor, as it’s the star flavor of Earl Grey tea. It’s also found flavoring cookies, custards, marmalades, syrups and … perhaps a cocktail?

Developed to accentuate the nuances of our malt whiskey, this ready-to-drink cocktail is made using our whiskey distilled with tart cherries and highly-fragrant, citrusy bergamot oranges, then blended with a house-made sour mix.

Light amber in color, it is chock full of oak and vanilla whiskey flavors balanced by notes of citrus and dark cherries with a hint of honey, lemon and bergamot.

So ditch the fancy glassware, mixing equipment and enjoy cold, straight from the can!!


Dogfish Head Distilling Co. Vodka Lemonade Cocktail...$11.99 / 4pk cans
Scratch-Made Using Our Vodka Distilled With Strawberries & Honeyberries
Wait, what is a Honeyberry? Honeyberries taste like a cross between raspberries and blueberries. They are excellent eaten fresh or in desserts, ice cream, preserves, and now ... cocktails!  Inspired by Sam’s visits to his friend’s honeyberry farm in coastal Maine, this scratch-made cocktail features our vodka distilled with honeyberries, macerated with strawberries and blended with a house-made lemonade.
Light coral in color with a fresh-squeezed lemonade haze, it exudes the well-balanced tartness of fresh-squeezed lemon combined with a sweet berry taste.
Strawberry Honeyberry Vodka Lemonade is certified gluten free.



Dogfish Head Distilling Co. Vodka Soda Cocktail...$11.99 / 4pk cans
Scratch-Made Using Our Vodka Distilled With Blueberries & Lightly Sweetened Vinegar
Wait, isn’t a shrub what you decorate your front door with? Yes, BUT it is also an old-timey drink made from dark fruits macerated in sugar and vinegar. This sweet, yet acidic syrup was traditionally mixed with water or soda water for a flavorful refresher.

This here cocktail was inspired by the bartenders at our James Beard Award-nominated bar program at Chesapeake & Maine. This scratch-made cocktail begins with our vodka distilled with blueberries. It is then macerated with lightly sweetened balsamic and red wine vinegar to create a blueberry shrub vodka which we then blend with soda water.

The ensuing deep, burgundy-colored libation is juicy and subtly sweet from the blueberries, with a slightly sour and complex fruity character from the vinegar.

So ditch the fancy glassware, mixing equipment and enjoy cold, straight from the can!!

We were so excited about what we were tasting so we submitted it to the Los Angeles Spirits Awards 2020 and it won Best in Show in the ready-to-drink category.
