Recipes and Uses

Midnight Mango Mocktail

Not another sweet mocktail. Our Mango Habanero Syrup gives this drink dinner-party weight — slow-building heat, layered complexity, the kind of thing you sip through instead of gulp.

Marionberry BBQ Baby Back Ribs

Baby back ribs get a Pacific Northwest twist with a Marionberry Syrup BBQ sauce. The ribs bake low and slow in the oven, then finish under the broiler with a couple of coats of sauce for that lacquered exterior.

Marionberry Lemonade

A two-minute lemonade with the sharp-and-sweet edge that plain lemonade misses. Our Marionberry Syrup brings dark berry depth; the lemon juice keeps it bright.

Ginger Mint Watermelon Slush: The Adults' Pool Drink

The frozen watermelon drink you build a pool day around. Six servings from one blender, plenty of Ginger Syrup and fresh mint to make it grown-up. Vodka or rum optional; scale to how much sun you’re getting.

Chai Candied Bacon: The Brunch Showstopper

Bacon soaked in Bright Chai Syrup, dredged in spiced brown sugar, and baked crisp on a wire rack. Best planned around brunch since it needs two hours of marinating time, but hands-on effort is minimal.

Black and Brown Cocktail

A beer cocktail that drinks like a grown-up root beer float. Our Genuine Root Beer Syrup goes into soda water; an oatmeal stout floats on top, dark and creamy. Three ingredients flat.

Bourbon Tonic

A bourbon and tonic, except the sweetener is our Rose Cordial Syrup. The rose softens the bourbon’s heat without competing; sparkling water keeps it long. From our friends at Freeland Spirits.

Sweet Whispers Cocktail

Floral up front, chocolatey at the finish. Our Rose Cordial Syrup and dark cacao bitters trade off across a gin-and-lemon backbone. Five minutes; drink it cold. From our friends at Freeland Spirits.

Spicy Ginger Rickey: A Highball With Range

A gin Rickey for the warm end of the year. Our Spicy Ginger Syrup carries the heat; fresh lime keeps the drink dry; sparkling water makes it last. From our friends at Freeland Spirits.

Different Roots Cocktail

Sarsaparilla and vanilla from our Genuine Root Beer Syrup round out the sharp herbal notes of gin and Fernet for a highball with character.

Spicy Chai Old Fashioned

An Old Fashioned in a heavier coat. Our Bright Chai Syrup brings cardamom, ginger, and clove to good bourbon; piri piri and curry bitters push it further. Two minutes to build, drinks like more. From our friends at Freeland Spirits.

Conversation Hearts

A light bourbon cocktail for a long porch evening. Our Rose Cordial Syrup softens the bourbon; fresh grapefruit keeps the edge. Three ingredients, no shaker tricks. From our friends at Freeland Spirits.
