Starbucks’ Reserve roasteries are known for their immersive coffee experiences and specialized menus. If you’re lucky enough to live near a Reserve roastery or visit NYC, Chicago, or Seattle, don’t miss the chance to enter a world of delicious seasonal flavors. Starbucks’ Reserve locations just announced their new holiday menu, with indulgent coffee concoctions such as the Iced Caramel Brulée Eggnog Latte. Specialty beverages like this join the menu featuring beloved classics like the Peppermint Mocha drinks.

Visitors can also try the new Eggnog Espresso Martini for something a bit stronger than a traditional latte. This fun seasonal latte is made with Zacapa 23 Aged Rum, cream, vanilla syrup, Scrappy’s Chocolate Bitters, eggnog, and is topped with cold foam and a dusting of nutmeg.

Breckenridge just bottled a Colorado peach orchard into their new whiskey

Food, Fruit, Liquor, Whiskey

Colorado-based Breckenridge Distillery has just released their Peach Whiskey, the second flavored expression this year following the recent launch of its Honey Whiskey over the summer.

The whiskey is made using real peaches from Palisade, the Western Slope town Colorado treats as its unofficial peach capital and a genuine point of state pride during late summer harvest season.

Hard Truth’s new whiskey is built out of its two best ryes

Alcohol, Beverage, Liquor

Nashville, Indiana-based Hard Truth Distilling is taking two of its most decorated ryes and smashing them together into one bottle.

The new Master Distiller’s Reserve Dark Roast Rye is a 50/50 blend of the distillery’s Chocolate Malt Rye and Caramel Malt Rye, two mash bills that have individually racked up gold medals at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition since Hard Truth started experimenting with roasted malts back in 2018.

Build an award-winning bar cart with these 12 top spirits

Alcohol, Beverage, Liquor

For me, a solid liquor cabinet holds the absolute basics— vodka, whiskey, gin, tequila, bitters, and a few home bar essentials for crafting cocktails. But my less-than-impressive shelf had a fundamental flaw—I focused on variety instead of craftsmanship, barely looking beyond the label. So I amassed a dozen award-winning spirits to see if I could taste the difference.

The results? I learned that much of what I blamed on my technique was actually due to my spirits’ quality. With better bottles in hand, straight pours brought on deeper complexity, and cocktails achieved effortless balance, without a single skill set shift.
