4 Must Mix Cocktails made with Santa Teresa 1796 Arabica Coffee Cask Finish

By | Mixology News

Santa Teresa Rum introduces its latest innovation, Santa Teresa 1796 Arabica Coffee Cask Finish, the second release in its Cask Finish Series.

This unique expression begins with its acclaimed Santa Teresa 1796 rum, triple-aged using the Solera method. It undergoes an additional three months of aging in American white oak casks that previously held a rum-based cold brew made from 100% Arabica beans grown, roasted, and ground at Hacienda Santa Teresa. This makes it the first Venezuelan rum aged in coffee casks, inspired by the growing trend of coffee-infused cocktails. Give these classics a mix!

Cool Down with 3 New Flavors from Monin

By | Mixology News

This summer has been a hot one, so why not keep cool and hydrate with Monin’s new flavors?

Earlier this year, the brand released a Sugar Free Lavender Syrup to join their existing Florals line. It’s ideal for health-conscious consumers seeking to reduce their sugar intake, but still want to indulge in full-flavored beverages (maybe on a rooftop or sipping poolside!).

In addition to floral summer flavors and continuing to be on the pulse of wellness trends, the brand also extended its Beverage Boosts line with the launch of Hydration Boost — an electrolyte concentrate that supports hydration. The product is nearly flavorless and can be added to any beverage for an extra boost of hydration, as well as magnesium, potassium and sodium — perfect for staying hydrated in the summer sun.

Most recently, the brand launched their Matcha Green Tea Concentrate. Not only does this product create vibrant, photo-worthy beverages, but it’s easy to use and the perfect pick me up after spending all day in the summer sun. The product boasts organic Japanese matcha powder in concentrate form, making it easy (finally) to create a matcha or add into any beverage!

See below for some fun recipes incorporating the new launches!
