Cocktails have a way of transporting you. One sip of a Fireside Bourbon Cherry and you're sitting by the hearth on a snowy evening, or gathered around a campfire with friends. All you need for this escape are Smoked Black Cherry Mixicles (available in our Distinctive Collection), a glass, and your bourbon of choice. 
Some bars and adventurous home bartenders impart smokiness to their cocktails using a smoking gun, a tool that enables you to infuse foods and drinks with smoky flavor. We wanted to find a way to achieve that effect without requiring fancy equipment, and we wanted to create a smoky Mixicles flavor that would unfold as the cube melts.
Smoked Black Cherry Mixicles are imbued with natural liquid hickory smoke, a rich, slightly sweet essence that blends beautifully with black cherries and oranges. These cubes pair best with a high-proof bourbon and are perfect for sipping slowly. Should you find yourself with a bit of cube left in your glass at the end of your last sip, feel free to add more bourbon. It will warm you up from the inside out.
