I'm a vodka girl. If you've ever been out drinking with me, you know that's my liquor of choice.
Back in 2011, I read an article about two brothers, Will and Dave Willis, who were starting a Boston-based distillery. They named it Bully Boy and one of their first products would be vodka.
Since taking my first sip of Bully Boy vodka, that has been the only vodka I serve at my house (and you all know how often I entertain).
Now, just in time for hot toddy season, Bully Boy is releasing their new craft liquor, Hub Punch. To create this rum infusion, the brothers steep their Boston rum with orange peel, lemon peel and raspberry, then infuse that mixture with a secret (sssshhh!) assortment of botanicals and herbs. The result is a 70 proof booze that is equally delicious on the rocks or mixed with soda, lemonade or tea.
Hub Punch is not yet available in stores, so I couldn't test drive it myself. I was planning to mix up a drink for all of you, but instead, I started cruising Pinterest for a new bar cart. I think I need this one as well as this sign, right?
Though it won't hit shelves until late October, you can be one of the first to sample Hub Punch at its launch party on Wednesday, October 22nd at The Hawthorne. The bartenders at this renowned cocktail haven will be mixing up specialty drinks featuring Hub Punch. Get your tickets to the party here.
Who is ready for a sip?
