Fire up your Brown Derby with Red Clay Hot Honey!
Dear Friends,
As I said in yesterday’s Instagram post, “It all started with the Bardstown Derby Cocktail” at Pearl Dive Oyster Palace in DC! It actually all started when Elizabeth and Alex chose this drink as a signature cocktail for their wedding last summer. I don’t even like Bourbon and I LOVE this cocktail!
Since serving last summer, we’ve been concocting variations, which I’ll share with you today so you too can choose your favorite and enjoy! I also want you to know about Red Clay Hot Honey. I’ve gone a bit crazy over The Red Clay hot sauces and seasonings … adding to cocktails, chilis, soups, salsas along with giving as Christmas gifts, stocking stuffers, hostess gifts. You know how I am when I love something!
Enjoy your own version of the Dalrymple Brown Derby and heat up your Valentine’s Day dinner or any occasion with a little Red Clay!
