Last month, I had the pleasure to work with American Cocktail Co to design the upcoming April box: The Spicy Ginger Mule. This is a bourbon-based mule with the notes of apricot, just in time for the spring weather to enjoy at home.

A little bit about American Cocktail Co: In 2012, while working at The Jefferson Hotel in Washington DC, Christoper Wirth teamed up with his friend Massimiliano Matte, a renowned mixologist to found American Cocktail Co. Their goal is to turn the evolution into a revolution by creating incredible unique juice blends and making them widely available.

The particular blend I used in my drink is the Spicy Ginger Mule mix. It is firey with fresh, cold-pressed ginger, not to mention it is gluten-free, vegan and all-natural ingredients.

The specific drink I designed is called Apri-caught Showers, a play on the fruit apricot used in the drink.
