Cask & Kettle is an easy and convenient way for anyone to prepare and serve a complete, well-crafted hot cocktail. Simply pop one of the single serve cups into your brewing system and a smooth, aromatic hot cocktail is ready in seconds. My personal favorite from the brand is the Mint Patty Coffee, which offers a bright, crisp taste of vodka and mint, as blended into dark roast coffee with a touch of dark chocolate. Also fantastic is Cask & Kettle’s Irish Coffee offering, which pairs the aroma of smoky Irish-style whiskey and the welcoming allure of dark roasted beans and buttery caramel. 75 proof on the Mint Patty Coffee and 76 proof on the Irish Coffee, which works just fine for me.

Austin, Texas-based founder Clark Nowlin launched Golden Radio Coffee this year after he developed a unique, proprietary roasting method with some local coffee experts. Golden Ratio Coffee is made by roasting low and slow, to give beans without the burn to yield a cup that is highly-caffeinated but low on acidity and bitterness. It ultimately drinks more like tea but with more caffeine, and without the stomachache that many get from coffee. The roasts are sourced from 3 distinct and ethically-run, single-origin bean producers in Nicaragua, Brazil and Ethiopia, and are available in eco-friendly, tea-like sachets for the easiest, most versatile preparation in mind, with no extra equipment needed.
The Pickle Juice Company’s Pickle Juice
Last but definitely not least, The Pickle Juice Company is a leading sports beverage company that has transformed the way muscle cramping is treated with its functional and USDA Organic formula. Its bottled Pickle Juice is free of allergens, gluten and sugar, and is loaded with up to 14 times more electrolytes than the average sports drink. The drink also aims the engage the same neurological receptors in the brain that causes cramps and stops them, reportedly quicker than anything else on the market today.

If you are seeking a restaurant-style meal that you can whip up in minutes, Bourbon Brothers has some excellent offerings worth knowing about. Bourbon Brothers recently launches a series of southern-inspired premium protein-centric, classic recipes which I recommend, including Smoked Chicken Chile Verde, Chicken Marsala, and Smoked Pulled Pork offerings. Don’t let the “microwaveable” convenience fool you, Bourbon Brothers takes pride in its approach to small-batch cooking and quality-oriented ingredients. For example, the pork within its entrees are smoked for a traditional 13 hours using real hickory wood, and its all-natural chicken is roasted in the same high-humidity ovens used by gourmet chefs. There is no catch, as far as I can tell.
Previously I have had the pleasure of trying — and subsequently coveirng — both Ketel One’s Arnold Palmer Collector’s Edition Bottle and its Cocktail Courier kits.
