In true Skrewball fashion, they’re encouraging people to spice things up with a shot served from a quirky baster. The Skrewball Baster Set features seven 50ml shot basters, a wooden holder, and a gravy boat for filling with Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey—all for just $11.28 plus tax, with free shipping within the U.S. Skrewball will donate all proceeds from the sale of the Skrewball Baster Set to the Southern Smoke Foundation, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to giving back this holiday season.

To break the cycle of holiday monotony, Skrewball and Yung Gravy are launching a limited-edition Skrewball Baster Set, because, really, nothing says tradition like mom’s turkey baster with a twist. Teaming up with Yung Gravy, the brand is bringing his swag, unique charm, and nutty humor to the mix. And let’s not forget—Gravy is in his name, so you know he’s always bringing the sauce!

The Skrewball Baster Set isn’t just for basting the turkey or passing the gravy—it’s made for sharing shots and spreading the delicious peanut butter flavor of Skrewball Whiskey with family and friends (21+). Each Skrewball Shot Baster is designed to deliver the perfect single serve of Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey, complete with a baster bulb shaped like Skrewball’s iconic sheep logo. The Skrewball Gravy Boat puts a fun twist on the classic serving vessel, making it the perfect addition to your Friendsgiving or Thanksgiving spread. Family and friends can enjoy the unique experience of filling their basters with smooth peanut butter whiskey straight from the gravy boat.

“Skrewball and Gravy together just made sense from the jump. We’re both sweet, smooth and know how to start the party ;). This Thanksgiving, I wanted to take family time to the next level. All you need is a turkey baster, a gravy boat, and some Skrewball,” said Yung Gravy.

“Let’s all ‘Give Thanks and Get Basted’ this Thanksgiving with Gravy and Skrewball!”

“Thanksgiving is a time for friends and family to gather and give thanks over good food and drinks. We’re thrilled to have Yung Gravy join us in Skrewing the Usual traditions and infusing more fun into the holiday,” said Skrewball Whiskey Senior Brand Manager, Gary Feeney.

“At Skrewball, we’re always looking for new ways to engage with our consumers and mess with the norm. Partnering with Yung Gravy for the Baster Set introduces an unexpected new drinking experience for people and a fresh perspective on how to celebrate the holiday. Together, we’re excited to turn tradition on its head and craft memorable moments for families and friends alike.”

About Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey

This Thanksgiving, pair Bella Sirena Wine with dishes that highlight the season’s flavors. These thoughtful pairings are perfect for elevating your holiday table.

Turkey and Kale White Bean Soup paired with Falanghina, which can pick up the herb elements from the soup (thyme, rosemary) to create a connection between the two elements. Falanghina is a white wine variety that originates from Italy, specifically the Campania region. It is known for its fresh, aromatic qualities and is often appreciated for its balance and crispness.

Vegetable Thanksgiving Lasagna

Bella Sirena Falanghina is a premium varietal highlighting the wine’s natural fruity and floral notes and has a bright acidity that cuts through the richness of the cheese and cream in the lasagna, balancing the dish nicely.

Autumn and Pear Salad

The citrus elements from both the wine and dish balance and the crispness of the wine and crunchiness of the salad go together.

The Casa Azul Organic Tequila dinner at Alma at The Grove in Los Angeles was a remarkable evening for members of The Chilled 100, featuring a confluence of education, exquisite dining, and the art of tequila appreciation.

Hosted by the Casa Azul team and the National Director of the Chilled 100, Wendy Hodges, the event gathered members of the Los Angeles Chilled 100 chapter for an unforgettable experience.

The evening kicked off with a refreshing Casa Azul cocktail, a testament to the creativity and skill of Armando De La Fuente and Alma’s talented bar team, setting the stage for the night. Attendees then delved into the world of Casa Azul through an enlightening presentation by Bryan Tilbury, Chief Commercial Officer of Casa Azul Spirits. His insights into the rich history of the Montes family and the unique qualities of their tequila captivated the audience.

Randy Ta expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “That night at Alma was truly amazing! I learned so much about Casa Azul and the rich history of the Montes family. Honestly, Casa Azul has the best Blanco tequila on the market!” This sentiment was echoed by Anthony Wells, who appreciated the seamless pairing of tequila with the evening’s culinary offerings, saying, “Who doesn’t love learning about one of the purest tequilas on the market matched with an elegant dining experience?! My favorite part was exploring how the tequila paired so well with the food! It was an awesome time.”

The atmosphere was vibrant with positive energy, as noted by Adriel Deayon, who enjoyed the harmony between each cocktail and course, particularly the Tequila Espresso Martini paired with churros for dessert. Champaign King highlighted the luxurious experience of the Casa Azul Negroni, praising its subtle roasted agave notes. Meanwhile, Michael Lebron was impressed by how Casa Azul emphasized flavor continuity across their tequila range, from Blanco to Añejo, an aspect he had never encountered before.

In summary, the Casa Azul Organic Tequila dinner was more than just a tasting event; it was a journey into the craft and passion behind one of the finest tequilas on the market, leaving attendees both educated and inspired.

Danilo Božović Managing Partner of Swizzle Rum Bar and Drinkery Miami and bar industry veteran’s book Barkeep 2: The Art of Mixology, Bar & Cocktails makes the perfect gift.

Božović has been a bartender at some of the country’s most awarded bars for over two decades. In addition, his work as a beverage consultant has taken him around the world, where he developed a deep knowledge of international spirits and global trends. Get ready for lessons on unique global spirits like Slivovitz, Clairin, Singani, and Mastiha, together with sections on Caribbean and Latin spirit offerings informed by Božović’s creation of Swizzle Rum Bar & Drinkery, signature cocktails from the bar, and cocktails he encountered on his travels.

The second edition of Barkeep offers updates and insights on mixology, cocktails, craft techniques, classic and contemporary recipes, food, wine, cigars, and easy-to-make ingredients at home.

We Ask Danilo to tell us more about his book:

Tell us something about you in the spirits industry that most people don’t know. What are some important lessons you’ve learned behind the bar?

Being a writer, I love to read books all the time—especially books about mindfulness and cocktails, of course. I’m sure that people would assume that about me, so that’s nothing too much new. I’d say that I’m a fan of UFC; probably not many people know that. I also very much respect and like to watch Canelos and Fury fights. It’s not just the fights, but I also analyze their psychological state. It’s fascinating to me, and I genuinely have the utmost respect for these two individuals.

Talk to us about what inspired you to write your book.

When I was starting to be a bartender, there wasn’t a lot of material available for me to learn from; I would have friends from the U.S. send me CDs and any book I could learn from. Usually, the books in Serbia were mostly Cocktail books or books just focusing on cocktails. It was as tough to find a mentor since experienced bartenders weren’t sharing much information or knowledge. Since it was hard for me as a young bartender to develop myself, I told myself a long time ago that I would do my best to help anyone starting to bartend or, as the book has evolved into anyone looking to learn anything from our cocktail world. The Barkeep book is dedicated to that young me or anyone else in that situation.

Talk to us about Barkeep 2.

The goal with Barkeep 2 was to be as comprehensive and knowledge-giving as possible. Not only does it possess cocktail recipes, but what I’m genuinely proud of is that it goes so much more into the depth of our craft, how to move behind the bar, how to create Cocktails, what to do when you open your bar, it talks about coffee, tea, cigars, wine, it possesses a food lexicon, the history of bartending and so much more. It has everything one would need or wants to read when we talk about our world of mixology and cocktails.

Tell us about Barkeep 1.

Barkeep one was released in 2016. It was done in-depth with the knowledge from our craft. Since then, I have changed as a person and as a bartender and have noticed things that I would like to say more in there for the second book was released. It’s nominated for a James Beard Award, which, to be honest, is my biggest dream to receive.

What should bartenders expect to learn from reading your books?

After reading so many Cocktail books, I wanted to give the world a slightly more different book. It possesses cocktails, but cocktails are not the emphasis of the book. Our craft, the history behind it, the psychological aspect of hospitality and bartending, and the approach towards that craft is what I’m genuinely proud of, Barkeep. I am a very critical person, and it brings me nothing but joy to say that I couldn’t be prouder of Barkeep Book.

Who would you say are your biggest influences in bartending world?

Definitely Dushan Zarić, Dale DeGroff and Igor Hadzismajlovic. I cannot say enough great words about these three individuals. They are the geniuses of our time, and because of the inspiration and respect I had for these individuals, I left my hometown of Belgrade, Serbia, and came to New York to work for Employees Only and Macao Trading Company. Even though you start from the bottom as a stocker and or bar back apprentice at Employees Only, it was nothing but an honor to be there and learn from these two individuals, Dushan and Igor. Also, Gilda Groff was an inspiration for me since I probably took the most from his books than any other cocktail book around 2006.

Barkeep: The Art of Mixology, Bar & Cocktails will be available on Amazon.

On November 8th, 2024, Ole Smoky Distillery announced a $115,000 donation to Friends of the Smokies.

This non-profit supports the National Park Service in its efforts to conserve and protect the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the most visited national park in the U.S. This marks the fourth consecutive year that Ole Smoky has contributed to the organization, bringing the total amount donated to Friends of the Smokies to $340,000 so far.

Ole Smoky Distillery has been a dedicated long-time supporter of Friends of the Smokies, which inspired the 2021 release of their Limited Edition ‘Friends of the Smokies Blackberry Moonshine,’ a product created to aid in the preservation of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. In addition to this, Ole Smoky contributes staff for volunteer days within the park and sponsors the organization’s annual events and community initiatives. The $115,000 donation comes from proceeds raised through event sponsorships and the sale of specialty jars at all four Ole Smoky distilleries throughout the year. To mark the occasion, a check presentation was held at The Barn, Ole Smoky’s Distillery in Pigeon Forge, celebrating the charitable act.

“We are so grateful for this donation from Ole Smoky, a business that is both deeply rooted in the Great Smoky Mountains and generously supports the care of our treasured National Park,” said Dana Soehn, President and CEO of Friends of the Smokies.

“Ole Smoky is deeply honored to support our neighbors in East Tennessee and give back to the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains, especially as they face remaining challenges from natural forces like Hurricane Helene this year,” said Robert Hall, CEO of Ole Smoky Distillery.

“Making a difference in the region that shaped our heritage is a privilege, and we’re grateful for the continued support from our fans, whose love for our ‘Friends of the Smokies’ Blackberry Moonshine helps preserve this cherished landmark for future generations.”
