Inspired by that perfect cup of Portland coffee, our small-batch Coffee Liqueur is rich, delicious, and Portland-made. We teamed up with local coffee roasters Marigold Coffee to create the perfect blend for the base of our liqueur. At the distillery we extract robust coffee flavor by a cold-brew method, then carefully blend with our batch-distilled spirits, organic cane sugar, and agave nectar. The result is a decadent Coffee Liqueur that’s full of rich coffee flavor that’s perfect for so many wintry cocktails.

Let’s start with a classic. There’s something about the holidays that makes a White Russian sound ultra-tempting. Maybe it’s the ice cold combination of vodka, coffee liqueur, and a hefty splash of cream? Maybe its how incredibly easy they are to make? But let me ask you this,  have you ever had a mocha White Russian? It’s delicious and just as easy to make. Simply swap out classic vodka for our Mud Puddle Bitter Chocolate Vodka and you will be in business. If you haven’t already, you’ve got to give our Muddy Russian a try.

Doing some entertaining this holiday season? The Slow Shot is a relatively tiny tipple that’s the perfect welcome drink for your guests. You can shake up a few at a time and the strong rum and coffee liqueur are sure to put a jingle in your holiday mingle. If you want to go full-sized, this next one is a bit of a show stopper with its coffee-sugar rim. Winter Perks combines rye spice, fruity jam, and warming notes of coffee and cocoa nibs. It’s both fresh, rich, and a fantastic cocktail to sip on a cold night.

If you like whiskey and coffee, these next two classics will definitely be up your alley. Have you ever had a Revolver? This three ingredient cocktail is a simple, yet divine combination of Distiller’s Reserve Bourbon, Coffee Liqueur, and orange bitters. Just stir with ice, pour over a large ice cube, and absolutely do not leave out the orange zest garnish. Squeeze the peel over the surface of the drink and you’ll release aromatic orange oils that really pull the cocktail together. Another whiskey-coffee classic to revisit (if you haven’t already) is the Irish Coffee. The key here is to jazz it up with coffee liqueur whipped cream. Use a hand or stand mixer to blend heavy cream, powdered sugar, and coffee liqueur into an ultra-wonderful whipped topping. Or, if you want an arm workout, dry shake the ingredients in a tin until thick and fluffy.

If you’re in cozy drink mode, Comfy Coffee is for you. This spiked coffee drink is equally delicious in a mug or a thermos. And we think you’ll love the Mud Puddle whipped cream topping. Have you picked up a bottle of our Nocino yet? If so, you’ll want to try out a Cafe Cully. You’ll love the earthy, nutty notes from the Nocino that pair beautifully with the sweet maple whipped cream.

Need a pick-me-up? Why not energize your night with an Espresso Martini? This cocktail has made a recent comeback and we are thrilled. It really is a tasty drink and a fun way to get some pep in your step. And you could always kick it up a notch with a Mocha Martini. A dose of Mud Puddle Bitter Chocolate Vodka and Irish Cream makes it an ultra-decadent treat. Cheers!
