The Patriot - Irish Whiskey Cocktail
Posted by Irish Whiskey USA on
The Patriot cocktail is ideally suited for the fall season and particularly the month of November. Originally conceived as a Super Bowl cocktail to honor the New England Patriots, the IWSA thinks this works best during November. In recognition of those who have served in the US military, The Patriot is a refreshing Veteran's Day cocktail. The enjoyment can last straight through the Thanksgiving holiday with flavors of cranberry, maple, and rye to wash down your leftovers.
