Spiced Apple Old Fashioned

Complex and sippable with natural flavor and body, our signature flavors are defined by oaky hints of vanilla and warm spice, followed by a velvety smooth finish.

Spiced Apple Old Fashioned

Wheyward Wheyskey and a homemade spiced apple syrup combine for a cozy autumn-inspired riff on a classic Old Fashioned. In 30 minutes or less you’ll have a bottle of delicious apple syrup and a Wheyskey cocktail ready to warm you up from the inside out.

2 oz Wheyward Wheyskey

½ oz Spiced Apple Syrup*

½ oz Apple Cider

2 dashes Angostura bitters

‍

Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass, add large ice cube, and stir to chill. Strain into rocks glass with a fresh cube. Garnish with a cinnamon stick and thin apple slice.

‍

*Spiced Apple Syrup

1 large red apple

½ cup sugar

1 cup water

1 cinnamon stick

3 cloves

‍

Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan over low medium heat. Let simmer for 15 minutes, do not let boil. Occasionally stir gently. Remove from heat and let cool. Strain syrup through a fine mesh strainer into an airtight jar or bottle. Store in refrigerator. 

Don’t let the apples go to waste! Use remaining soft apple pieces on top of oatmeal or yogurt for a sweet apple treat, or blend them up to make a homemade apple sauce to use in your favorite recipes.

The Hotel Wheyskey is our take on the tropical Hotel Nacional cocktail out of Cuba. This is a fruity riff on a classic daiquiri, made even more unique by using Wheyward Wheyskey to create a richer flavor in place of a traditional rum.

Smash cocktails are classics for a reason -- evolving through the seasons and universally refreshing! Just like a mint julep is universally known, The Wheyward Smash is sure to be a future classic with its complex yet refreshing notes of black cherry, orange, and creamy vanilla from the addition of Wheyward Spirit.

We all love a glass of bubbly, but nobody likes pouring flat champagne down the drain! Our upcycled flat champagne syrup pairs beautifully with our velvety smooth Wheyward Spirit and fresh lemon to create a unique twist on the classic Bee's Knees cocktail.

Bubbly Bee's Knees

This cocktail is not just a drink; it’s a homage to Caravaggio’s "Basket of Fruit”. Each sip is like a brushstroke, lending the rich, dark sweetness of figs with the tartness of pomegranate, all grounded by Wheyskey’s warmth. The egg white adds a smooth, painterly texture, reminiscent of the way light plays across Caravaggio’s fruits.

Still Life With A "Basket of Fruit" Fizz

Our Ruby Milk Punch is just as much a journey in food science as it is mixology! This pre-batched and incredibly flavorful punch can be stored for weeks and quickly served for large groups. It is a beautiful color with a fruity brightness and complex tea undertones rounded out by a silky smoothness.
