Cherry Buck/ Mule A buck is a cocktail made with either ginger beer or ginger ale (yeah, there is difference between these two), citrus juice,  and any number of base liquors. In our cherry buck, we have brought together LFC's Cherry, Vanilla, and Cacao shrub and Ginger Beer - Kaffir Lime with rumISH for that perfect oomph. Ingredients: Style: Shaken | Straight Up Flavour Profile: Citrusy, Spicy and Sweet Ingredients: (1 oz = 30 ml) rumISH - 2 oz LFC Cherry Shrub - 1 1/2 oz Lemon Juice - 15 ml LFC Ginger Beer - Kaffir Lime - 8 1/2 oz Steps: Add the lemon juice, LFC shrub and rumISH in a shaker with ice. Shake it until chilled. Strain it into a rocks glass with ice. Top it with Kaffir Lime infused Ginger Beer. Garnish it with a dried lemon wheel or a patted kaffir lime leaf.
The Shandy In our rendition to a Shandy, we mixed in our fruity and tarty Raspberry, Ginger, and Orange Shrub with the hoppy, bitter coast co IPA. Style: Straight Up Flavour Profile: Hoppy, Tangy, and Bitter Sweet Ingredients: (1 oz = 30 ml) Coast Co IPA (0% abv) - 11 oz LFC Raspberry, Ginger, and Orange Shrub - 2 oz Lemon Juice - 1 1/2 oz Steps: Add lemon juice and Raspberry, Ginger, and Orange Shrub to a beer glass. Stir it well. Add ice, if preferred. Top it with Coast Co IPA. Garnish it with a dried orange wheel or apple slice.
The Gimlet It cannot get any easier than a classic Gimlet, a chilled gin (right out of the freezer), lemon juice, and sugar. A simple combination of liquor, lime juice, and sugar classifies it as a sour. A gimlet at a bar is supposed to be like your morning coffee, it should wake you up before you break the ice. We cannot go against the divine forces who brought together our Asian Medley with anything ginISH (0% abv). Our rendition on this zero-proof Gimlet is crisp, herbaceous, dry, and ridiculously citrusy. Style: Sour | Shaken Flavour Profile: Citrusy, Herbaceous, and Tangy Ingredients: (1 oz = 30 ml) ginISH - 2 oz LFC Asian Shrub - 1 1/2 oz Lemon Juice - 15 ml Steps: Add the ginISH, lemon juice, and LFC's Asian Shrub in a shaker with ice. Shake it until chilled. Remember, any cocktail that has citrus always needs to be shaken. Keep a coupe or a rocks glass chilled. Strain it into the glass. Garnish it with a fresh or dried lime wheel.
