SHIFT KICKER
FEATURED SPIRIT:
Kansas City Whiskey
A bold and complex low-ABV sipper that blends the richness of Rieger Kansas City Whiskey with a trio of sherries—amontillado, oloroso, and Pedro Ximénez—for layered nuttiness and dried fruit notes. Brightened with a touch of fresh lemon and a house-made mixed berry cordial, this julep-style drink is shaken with pebble ice and topped with a lush garnish of mint, orange, and seasonal berries. Perfect for easing into the evening or winding down a shift with sophistication.
