The genius drink scientists at Silver Lining will be teaching guests how to craft the perfect summer time cocktails – just in time for that Labor Day party you haven’t planned yet. There will be complementary food, oh and ice-cutting techniques.

Detroit City Distillery is releasing its popular Pączki Day Vodka

There's a decent chance you don't know what a Pączki is. Well, the easiest way to describe them is that they're filled donuts popular in Poland and areas in the US with large Polish populations. They're most often enjoyed on Fat Tuesday before the beginning of Lent.

While these strawberry, raspberry, and other fruit-filled donuts are great on their own, they're even better when paired with a vodka specifically made for them. Lucky for you, Detroit City Distillery announced that it was once again releasing its popular Pączki Day Vodka. But that's not all; it's also launching a new Pączki-centric spirit.

Recently, many brands have started to take advantage of the mushroom coffee trend, yet a recent report by Grand View Research suggests the hype around mushroom coffee is not just a trend that will come and go. Per the recent report, the global mushroom coffee market size is expected to reach USD 4.12 billion by 2030, expanding at 5.5% CAGR from 2023 to 2030. The mushroom coffee market report suggests the market's rise is anticipated to be fueled by consumer's preferences for ready-to-drink and premium coffees. Additionally, the report indicates the surge in demand may also be attributed to other factors, such as rising awareness of the medicinal benefits of mushrooms, flavorful coffee experiences, and increased awareness of ethical & sustainable sourcing practices.

Trends indicate that today's consumers are seeking alternative coffee options, such as decaf or herbal coffee blends.

Brands such as Four Sigmatic Mushroom Coffee and Everyday Dose Coffee have remained top sellers in the industry, with many traditional coffee brands experimenting with options for mushroom coffee, too.
