Are you starting to think about Holiday Gifts? I’ve got the best gift idea for you (keep reading for a $10 off coupon). I am sure you know what an Advent Calendar is right?
How about a grown-up advent calendar filled with mini bottles of amazing quality spirits? Yep. We ALLLL need to get through the 24 days before the holiday insanity. I am right or what?
I partnered with one of my fav Seattle distillery’s – Heritage Distilling – to create this (dye free) Maraschino Cherry Manhattan using a bottle of their Elk Rider Bourbon from their annual Spirit Advent Calendar.
You might remember them from these Brown Sugar Bourbon Shrimp Skewers I made over the summer.
They have some seriously good spirits and the Advent Calendar is a fun and affordable way to get to try a bunch of them! They usually sell out QUICK so make sure to order one soon before you miss the chance.
And, I got you a $10 off code — MAVEN10.
You are going to love this festive cocktail.
