A Fun Southern Wedding Tradition
Planning a wedding at a Virginia distillery or elsewhere? Why not try the quirky southern tradition of “burying the bourbon” to assure good weather for your big day.
One month before your wedding, grab a shovel and a bottle of you or your future spouse’s favorite bourbon and dig a hole at the site of your wedding and/or reception. (It might be a good idea to check with the venue owners first!) The full bottle (no sips allowed beforehand!) must be placed upside down in the hole and covered up. Leave it undisturbed until the morning of the wedding to insure blue skies and perfect temperatures for your “I do’s.” It’s ok to dig it up and take a celebratory swig with your wedding party before you head down the aisle or afterwards … just don’t leave it in the ground!
Sweet Sips + Spirits for the Season
Virginia ABC Signature Cocktail: Pink Tuxedo
This delightful concoction marries the elegance of Empress 1908 Elderflower Rose Gin with the vibrant tang of Ruby Red Grapefruit juice. Giffard Pamplemousse liqueur adds a refreshing twist, while lime juice provides a lively citrus kick. Lavender syrup lends a delicate floral sweetness, harmonizing perfectly with the other flavors.
Bourbon Maple Syrup
Treat yourself to brunch bliss with our Maple Bourbon Syrup. This carefully crafted blend of rich maple syrup infused with premium bourbon, hints of vanilla, and a touch of lemon juice promises a sweet and spirited start to your day. Drizzle it over waffles, pancakes, or French toast for a touch of sophistication and irresistible flavor. It's like a symphony for your taste buds, promising a sweet and spirited start to your day.
