Three Cocktails for World Gin Day


The phrase “better letter than never” seems to truly define the Cocktails, 365 experience. We have these grand plans of involvement in major events in the cocktail movements of the day and then we promptly get involved with enjoying the event and not writing about it. Specifically, today, we’re talking about World Gin Day.

The Dichotomy of Kansas Springs


Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Zephyr. It has been brutally windy the past four days here at Cocktails, 365 headquarters. So windy, in fact, that we’ve been making the news. I spoke with a colleague in California this afternoon who said the name Dodge City actually sauntered across their consciousness […]

A Tonic Apart – Jack Rudy Cocktail Co’s Small Batch Tonic


Words such as “handcrafted” and “artesian” and “small batch” can often be chalked up to clever marketing tactics.

Cherry Cola

September 12, 2010 (Day 225) — Bluebeard’s Wench Ahhh, Sunday brunch right before I head out for a week away from my wife and stepson for work. Let’s make something fun and bright to keep the mood’s levity! I love the name  Bluebeard’s Wench, so let’s make that one. Bluebeard’s Wench 3 oz rum 1.5 […]

Frostbit Kentuckian


September 11, 2010 (Day 224) — Frostbit Kentuckian I struggled to find some way to create an effective and meaningful way to talk about the nine years since September 11… But I can’t. I’m a purveyor of dick and fart jokes. My thoughts and prayers with all those who have known a loss that I […]

The Green Giant


August 12, 2010 (Day 195) — Green Giant My man Josh Davis created this little summer refresher during a Tanqueray gin cocktail contest late last month in Chicago. As you can see from the photos he was nice enough to supply, it was obviously a pretty awesome party in Chi-town. Unfortunately, I was here in […]
