Here are some recipes you should learn for your next party.
How to make your own Rock & Rye
Ingredients
● 750 ml. 80-proof Rye Whiskey
● 4-5 Claey’s horehound drops
● 2-3 Tbsp. honey
● 2 orange quarters, peel on
● 2 lemon quarters, peel on
● ⅛ peeled pineapple, chunked
● 6 cloves
● 2 cinnamon sticks
Add all ingredients to large jar and let sit, unrefrigerated. After about a week, based on personal preference, remove the cloves and cinnamon sticks. Adjust sweetness, if desired, by adding additional honey or simple syrup. Fruit can remain until you are ready to decant the concoction. Sediment forms from the fruits/spices and needs to be removed in order for the rock and rye to remain clear and visually appealing. You will want to decant more than once to achieve this.
