We are one month out from the Cocktails & Culture Festival in Santa Fe! One of our new events is the VIP Spirits Tasting Garden Party on Canyon Road on June 1, 3-5 pm.

Are you into savory cocktails? I am!

I’m very pleased to have my Mr. Pickles gin drink included in this Forbes piece about that very topic.

Bonus: Mr. Pickles Gin is named after the distillery pup so these folks are my kind of people considering my cocktail book called Drinking With My Dog! It’s a delicious gin from the Pacific Northwest. Check it out.

Get the recipe here, and peep the great photo by Santa Fe photographer Gabriella Marks

Cheers!
