    Lillet Triple Play

    Hint, it’s pronounced lee-LAY. So, yes, the title rhymes. What do James Bond and Hannibal Lecter have in common? They both love Lillet! However, they drank it quite differently: James in the Vesper martini and Hannibal straight with an orange slice. What can I say, it pleases all types. This family of aromatized wines includes a Blanc, Rose, and Rouge. All three are worth trying, but Blanc is the most common. If you'd rather watch our video about Lillet, here's a video on our

    Enjoy absinthe, but don’t expect a visit from a green fairy

    Absinthe is one of the most well-known spirits; yet, it is often only known for the misbelief that it makes you hallucinate. Queue EuroTrip scene.

There was a bottle of rum and vodka, which I may have requested. Oh, how my tastes have changed! But the one surprise I distinctly remember, Cointreau.

    Teakwood Tavern brings libations and smiles to friends

    Finished gift bags for friends of Teakwood Tavern Shen had a brilliant idea on Friday night--dropping off pre-made cocktail gift packages for some of Teakwood Tavern's best patrons. Here's how, in early April, Teakwood Tavern became known as Boozy Santa Clause. Bringing smiles to thirsty faces across the DFW metroplex. Let's get to the important part first--SAFETY. We took the preparation, packaging, and delivery of these gift bags seriously. We washed our hands and used hand
