Espresso Mootini

Espresso Mootini

With the Espresso Mootini, you can have your dessert and drink it too! Our velvety smooth spirit plays alongside bold flavors of coffee and amaro, all topped off with decadent salted vanilla cream for a rich and creamy treat.

1 1/2 oz Espresso Bean Infused Wheyward Spirit

1/2 oz Amaro (We like Averna)

1 1/2 oz cold brew or chilled espresso 

1/2 oz simple syrup

Garnish: Salted Vanilla Top Cream and 3 coffee beans 

‍

Combine Wheyward Spirit, Amaro, coffee, and simple syrup into a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice and shake vigorously. Strain into a coupe glass. Gently spoon a dollop of the Salted Vanilla Top Cream over the top of the drink. Garnish with coffee beans. 

‍

Espresso Bean Infused Wheyward Spirit

Makes 12 ounces

‍

1 1/2 cups (1/2 bottle) Wheyward Spirit 

3 Tbsp. dark roast coffee beans

‍

Place ingredients into a jar. Seal lid and shake. Let infuse at room temperature for at least 10 days before using, (shake jar occasionally). Store at room temperature for up to 60 days. 

‍

Salted Vanilla Top Cream 

Makes about 12 ounces 

‍

3 Tbsp. (packed) brown sugar

2 Tbsp. warm water

1/2 tsp. Kosher salt 

1 Tbsp. sour cream

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream 

1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

‍

Mix the brown sugar, water and salt together in a bowl until dissolved. Then whisk in the sour cream. Add the whipping cream and vanilla and whip until very loose whip cream consistency (the goal is to have it “spoonable”). Place in a container and store refrigerated for up to 3 days. Re-whisk a little if needed before using.

This 2 ingredient classic gets a new life using the velvety smooth Wheyward Wheyskey alongside the crisp bite and subtle sweetness of a high-quality ginger ale.

Wheyskey Highball

The charm of this cocktail is found in its straightforward blend and vibrant presentation. The Frozen Dragon Fruit Lemonade is a celebration of summer, offering a burst of color and flavor with its inclusion of red dragon fruit. As a blended drink, it’s not only refreshing but also incredibly convenient for pre-batching, perfect for serving up quickly without sacrificing the taste of Wheyward Spirit.

For the most smooth and sippable Wheyward Spirit experience, add a twist of lemon to your glass and relax as the spirit turns into a delicious blend of lemon, vanilla, and custard notes. Top it off with some seltzer for a bubbly treat.

Magnificent's Paper Plane

This cocktail offers a fresh take on the classic Carajillo, blending the bold flavors of Wheyskey with rich espresso to create a drink with a deep coffee and creamy wood profile. It is crowned with a light, vanilla-forward custard foam that adds a soft, sweet contrast to the strong coffee base.

Carajillo Cloud

Clarified milk punches date back to the 1600’s, but we think it’s a recipe that has finally come full circle with the addition of Wheyward Spirit. We love this cocktail because it’s just as much a journey in food science as it is mixology! This labor of love leads to a pre-batched and incredibly smooth flavorful punch that can be stored for weeks and quickly served for large groups. 

Our crystal clear Tropical Milk Punch is a beautiful color with a tropical brightness, cooling mint and green tea undertones, rounded out by a silky smoothness.


Tropical Clarified Milk Punch

This is a classic old fashioned with a little extra warmth. Instead of plain sugar, simmer maple syrup with autumnal spices for a cozy twist alongside the smoky sweetness of Wheyward Wheyskey. Make the syrup once and you're set for the month.
