For lighter summertime fare, the Backyard Tea – made with lemonade and iced tea – strips the innocence and adds a bite to the classic barbeque beverages. Easy to make and great for group, it can batched and served as a punch so guests can serve themselves -- and you can focus on manning delicious burgers and steaks searing on the grill.
Made with a spicy combination of ginger beer, pilsner, Tabasco and our beloved Sailor Jerry, the ingredients aptly explain its name – The Hellfire. Not for the faint of heart, this cocktail - a place where sweet, spicy, and salty come together harmoniously – can also provide a much needed “hair of the dog” the morning following a successful summer celebration.
Sailor Jerry, not only limited to cocktails, can be included in all aspects of your grill out! By adding a Sailor Jerry spice to your BBQ sauce or mixing it into your hamburger meat to help with caramelization on the grill, the liquid has more uses than you would ever imagine. Check out these recipes.
