Tequila is one of those drinks that evokes instant memories and associations. It might be the good times of partying, dancing and celebrating, or the slightly less appealing times of having one too many shots on a night out. The truth is, tequila is an incredible spirit that has been around for centuries and has become a cornerstone for some of the world’s most famous cocktails. It’s also a spirit that is highly misunderstood. Very few are aware of the sipping ritual of this agave nectar, yet, when they try it, they notice a whole other side and a new-found appreciation for...

When the weather is warm, it’s time for rum to shine. And as today is National Daiquiri Day, it’s the ideal time to try out this classic cocktail. Although many rum drinks are on the sweeter and more tropical side, there are other characteristics of rum that are worth considering as well. Some rums can be highly filtered and have a very netural taste, almost like vodka, but there’s been a trend in recent years toward more robust, characterful rums which express their flavors more boldly. A good quality rum should have notes of fruit and spice, like hints of banana or clove, and a white rum should be a delicate, smooth drinking experience.

It also imparts a fresh and clean flavor when added, and is one of few ingredients proven to actually make your mouth water (acidic foods increase salivation, which aids in the tasting process).

There are the big names in wine – the Cabernets, the Pinot Noirs, the Chardonnays. Then there are the more obscure varieties that people love to drop in conversation, hoping their knowledge of lesser-known bottles like Scuppernong might prove them to be somewhat sophisticated and knowledgeable. But then there are the middle-of-the-road wines. The ones that fall somewhere on the popularity scale between the big dogs and the no-names. These are the wines that often get lost in the shuffle, forgotten or cast aside, bringing with them a warm, fond remembrance whenever you stumble upon a glass accidentally. If you’re from anywhere but California, Zinfandel might just be one of these forgotten wine varieties for you.
