NEW GIVEAWAY! We're making Milk Punch??? 🥊 Hump Day Happy Hour

Have you ever heard of milk punch? I haven't. At least not until a childhood friend told me about it. It's a process of making what I would describe a mixer/simple syrup/liqueur... drink thing.

It's totally new to me and I had to start the process two days ahead of time. But I'll tell ya... It was fun and easy to do.

Roasted Pineapple Mezcal Margaritas - Hump Day Happy Hour with #LockwoodEffect

We've broadcast HDHH from our Denver home, from our Coronado Island home, and now from Los Cabos, Mexico! We took some time out from our latest Inspirato trip duties to whip up a Mexican cocktail: the Roasted Pineapple Mezcal Margarita! These margs combine the smoky flavor of local mezcal with the char from grilled fresh pineapple. The result is a cold, complex, and perfectly-sweet drink that makes you feel like you're right here in San Jose del Cabo with us!

Proper Apple Martini - Hump Day Happy Hour fall cocktails with #Lockwoodeffect

Because of our secret weapon main ingredient, this apple martini is hands down the best appletini in town!

Tito's vodka is our go-to vodka, of course, but the star of this week's cocktail recipe is Leopold Bro's New York Sour Apple Liqueur. Unlike the neon green "Puckers" Schnapps that's typical for an appletini recipe, The Leopold's tastes like biting into an actual granny smith apple. It's the real deal and results in a much more sophisticated apple flavor.
