Prepare for warmer weather with April picks from Brown Bag Liquor
Grilling season is coming!
Spring has sprung, and after a chilly winter and rainy March, warmer weather is finally on its way. And with warmer weather comes a new season of grilling with the neighbors, Sunday cookouts with extended family and weeknight drinks in backyards and on porches. While there’s nothing wrong with sticking to your usual beverages of choice, spring is the best time to switch things up and try something new. Who knows, maybe you’ll discover something that becomes your go-to drink for summer 2021 and beyond. Here’s our recommendations for drinks to try in April.
A to Z Rosé
It’s just like they always say: April showers bring… rosé? Okay, no one actually says that, but you will be once you see what A to Z has up its sleeve. If you haven’t hopped on the rosé bandwagon yet, now is the perfect time. A to Z Rosé is the perfect springtime wine, with an aroma of strawberry and watermelon and notes of honeydew, pear, citrus and more. It’s sweet but light, pairing well with picnic favorites like cheese boards, chicken salad and fruit medleys. Quite frankly, no brunch is complete without a bottle of A to Z Rosé, and you’ll see what we mean once you try it for yourself!
Crook & Marker Seltzer
The hard seltzer war wages on in 2021, but a new favorite of ours has emerged: Crook & Marker. As “the hard seltzer for people who don’t like hard seltzer,” it’s definitely a must-try for those of you who haven’t been able to get behind the likes of White Claw and Truly. With only 80 calories per can and no artificial sweeteners, Crook & Marker Seltzer is a drink you can truly feel good about (see what we did there 😉). Crook & Marker flavors include Margarita, Spiked Lemonade, Classic Iced Tea and Cocolada. And for a limited time, you can get a Margarita variety pack for free with the purchase of any other Crook & Marker variety pack. Not to play favorites, but that Margarita pack is pretty, pretty good.
21 Seeds Tequila
If there’s one thing we know, it’s that warm weather is synonymous with tequila; change our minds. 21 Seeds Tequila is fresh fruit-infused tequila that was created with the vision that tequila should be just as approachable as a can of beer or glass of wine. It’s this ethos that has made 21 Seeds incredibly successful since its berth, winning multiple awards from Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America annual convention in 2019, including Gold, Best of Show and best in category. 21 Seeds comes in multiple flavors, including Valencia Orange, Grapefruit Hibiscus and Cucumber Jalapeño. You can’t go wrong with any of them, though of course this writer is privy to anything with a little kick. The best part of 21 Seeds is that it’s great for mixing into cocktails and even better on its own. For recipes, check out the 21 Seeds website.
Cafe Agave Spiked Cold Brew
Spring is for sunrises, and to be sure you’re up early enough to catch them, you’re going to need some cold brew. That’s where Cafe Agave Spiked Cold Brew comes in. With 12.5% alcohol and actual gourmet coffee, it’s a spiked cold brew that actually tastes as good as the buzz it gives. Cafe Agave comes in four flavors: Caffe Mocha, Espresso Shot, Salted Caramel and Vanilla Cinnamon. There’s caffeinated goodness for every coffee lover here, and the best part is that you don’t have to mix it yourself. Or maybe the best part is the mouth-watering flavors. Or the 12.5% alcohol. Or the sweet buzz you get from it. As you can see, there’s a lot of best parts. Try it today!
