Cocktails for Characters - Brendan & Piper from It Happened One Summer

It’s our first double feature! This week we’re mixing up drinks for the power duo, Brendan and Piper, from Tessa Bailey’s It Happened One Summer!

BRENDAN
Needed something simple, but strong. Classic with just a hint of bitterness. Sounds like an old fashioned to us!

What You’ll Need:
2 oz Bulleit bourbon
2 bar spoons simple syrup
3 dashes angostura bitters
Orange

Add everything to your rocks glass, add ice, and give it a stir. Spritz an orange peel over the drink, swipe the glass with the peel, and add to your drink as garnish.

PIPER
While the old Piper may have been all champagne, the new Piper need something with a little more back bone, while still being sassy. So we’re mixing up a sparkling Paloma!

What You’ll Need:
2 oz Teremana blanco
1/2 oz lime juice
Sparkling Grapefruit Soda
Salt

Add a salt rim to your glass. Add the tequila and lime juice, giving it a swirl before adding your ice. And top off with your sparkling grapefruit soda. Garnish with a lime!

Enjoy these with your favorite recharging station! Cheers! 🥂
