Still Life With A "Basket of Fruit" Fizz

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.

Still Life With A "Basket of Fruit" Fizz

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. 

‍

2 oz Wheyward Wheyskey 

¾ oz Fig Syrup (from Liber & Co.)

¼ oz Grenadine

½ oz Lemon Juice

1 dash Angostura Bitters

1 Egg White

2 oz. Ginger Beer (from Fever-Tree)

‍

Combine Wheyskey, Fig Syrup, grenadine, egg white, and Angostura bitters in a shaker. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously to emulsify the egg white. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled. Double Strain into a highball glass. Tap the glass twice and wait for 15 seconds to allow the foam to settle. Gently top it off with ginger beer to create a beautiful layered effect. Garnish with three drops of Angostura bitters.

For a bespoke twist on an iconic Sazerac, Wheyward Spirit combines with simple syrup, the essential Peychaud’s BItters, and a quick absinthe rise for a bold, spirit-forward drink.

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.

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.
