Forbes
One more gift guide for Forbes! For this one I’m focusing on: Less Well-Known Spirits Are The Gifts Your Drinking Friends Actually Want This Season:
It seems like every spirits gift guide suggests popular well-known choices such as single malt whiskeys and top shelf tequila. But what to get for the friend or relative who likes to experiment a little and try new flavors and experiences that are a little out of the box?
Please include:
- Name of item
- Links to major retailers where sold (it’s in your best interest to include several retailer link options when pitching, especially major ones like Amazon)
- Link to image and any necessary credits
- Description why it’s a fit
I’m also looking for cocktails created in honor of or inspired by the northern lights, as well as Hanukkah-inspired cocktails available at bars/restaurants. Also please pitch me if you have any fun Hanukkah-related dishes, such as, say, a fun and unique spin on latkes.
For all my cocktail pieces, the format for pitching remains:
- Name of cocktail
- Where served, city, state, URL
- LINK to image of the drink and photo credit
- description (NOT a recipe) of drink, and quote about drink, with appropriate credit.
Thanks!
