With today being National Cocktail Day, we’ve already covered some great drink options for vodka lovers. But if you’re a whiskey fan — particularly if you usually drink your whiskey neat — then this can be a great excuse to try mixing with this spirit too. Whiskey has such a powerful flavor that it doesn’t need to be used in large amounts to have a big impact on a drink, but even in small amounts it can add a depth and complexity to a drink that no other spirit offers.

If you’re considering raising a glass tonight, then these suggestions for Wyoming Whiskey are sure to hit the mark.

Spring time is tequila time with these bright and light cocktails
Tequila Zarpado

While you have your tequila out for Ranch Water day, there are plenty of other spring cocktails that you can make with this spirit as well. These recipes from Bex Wyant use Tequila Zarpado and are a great fit for this time of year and include fresh and juicy ingredients like fresh pineapple juice, strawberry syrup, and mango syrup.

You can of course use syrups from the store, but if you have access to fresh fruits and want to make your own syrups, it's dead easy to do at home. My favorite method is to chop fruit into pieces, put it into a bowl, and cover it with white sugar. Leave it for 30 minutes and the sugar will pull the juices out of the fruit, creating a rich, fresh-tasting syrup that's perfect for cocktails.
