Raising the Bar


Is it Five O' Clock yet?
The cocktail hour has long been a cherished tradition of the South, a relaxing way to wind down and enjoy the conversation of friends and family, maybe a tasty little appetizer to nibble on, too. But why stop at the cocktail hour, when you can make it an all-out party?
Our newest collection of Bar accessories will have you shaking up a batch of Blueberry Martinis for an elegant cocktail in no time. 
Just because you're drink is fancy doesn't mean your bar-ware can't be fancy too!





Celebrate after a long day and toast to the warmth of spring with this favorite Blueberry Martini recipe!

Blueberry Martini

Handful of Fresh, Washed Blueberries (about 20 small)
1.5 Ounces Vodka
.5 Ounce Blue Curacao Liqueur
1/3 Ounce Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice, or more to taste
Garnish: Several Berries Skewered On A Cocktail Pick

Muddle the blueberries in a cocktail shaker. Add the vodka, curacao, and lemon juice. Fill the shaker with ice. Shake vigorously to help the blueberries release more color and flavor. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a chilled martini glass. Add the garnish.
