Aussie bartenders put new twist on US cocktail classics



Calling all cocktail lovers.

You can download a free cocktail recipe book as part of the Cheers! Spirits from the USA campaign aimed to promoting Us distilled spirits on July 4.

The campaign has partnered with 22 of Australia’s leading bartenders to create a free cocktail book containing a range of localised versions of cocktails that feature American spirits.

The cocktails in the book are all "make-at-home" versions, but people can head into participating bars around the country to taste ones made by the professionals.

You can download the free cocktail book right here.

The cocktails will highlight the versatility of American spirit brands including Angel’s Envy, Jack Daniels, Koval, Maker’s Mark, Old Forester, Wild Turkey, Westland, Westward American Single Malt Whiskey and Woodford Reserve.

The participating bartenders will also have their drinks available at their venues.
