8 Best Alcoholic Drinks, Spirits And Liquors In 2021 For Every Occasion

Still caught in a celebratory mood after St. Patrick's Day? No worries, you can continue celebrating in the company of your family and friends.

Traditionally, St. Paddy’s Day is celebrated with shamrock, leprechaun decorations and beer, preferably Guinness on draft and Steam Whistle pilsner. But since the holiday is over, why not open a few bottles of spirits with your friends and loved ones for some post-St. Patrick’s Day celebrating?

You can still have so much fun post the boozy holiday with these special spirits from Spirit Hub, which specializes in carrying a wide range of spirits all across America. So take a seat, get a pack of Irish soda bread, and get drinking!

1. Debonair Bourbon

Expertly brewed by the 28 Mile Distilling Company, this exquisite spirit is a high-rye bourbon that spent time in Spanish sherry and French cognac casks before getting blended with another Tennessee-made high-rye bourbon. As traditional bourbons go, it’s also been aged for two years in an oak barrel before getting processed. The result? A distinct and spicy tasting bourbon with a velvety and fruity finish.

2. Twin Stills Mixed Berry Moonshine

Traditional moonshine’s crystal clear composition makes for a perfect canvas for distillers, and Twin Stills Moonshine Distillery surely had the right idea by adding that pop of red in its famous drink. Made from all-natural blackberries, blueberries, strawberries and raspberries, this bright-looking flavored moonshine is the perfect drink to accompany your evening with friends.

3. 28 Mile Gin

28 Mile gin is inspired by the traditional London Dry style. This clear gin is both smooth and engaging, giving off a spice-packed finish amid an aroma of lemon, cinnamon custard, berries and even potpourri. The result is a gin that packs in quite the punch while being balanced by a pantheon of unique flavors.

Gone are the days when vodka was just a "ladies’ drink." Today, everyone enjoys a glass (or two), and the Star Union Spirits Vodka is no exception. Distilled to be as smooth as its bottle's design, this vodka is made from 100% Midwestern corn and water from local limestone walls. Mix it with lemonade or crank it up with a frozen shot and a baby dill pickle.

5. Split Spirits Vermont Sugar Maple

How do you encapsulate the wonderful state of Vermont in a bottle? Simple -- you take barley, corn and rye from its Champlain Valley and mix it with Sugar Maple Wood from the trees that line its hillsides. Rugged yet charming, Split Spirit’s specialty drink is perfect for celebrating. Long and lingering in its fruitiness with a sweet maple syrup aroma, it’s best enjoyed while chilling outside and looking at all the St. Patrick's Day decorations you need to clean up.

6. Cherry Eau de Vie

Distilled by Red Cedar Spirits, the Cherry Eau de Vie contains Michigan Montgomery cherries with no other flavor added, letting it highlight the strong alcohol flavor that slowly fades into hints of relaxing cherry. Pair it with some dark chocolate and you’re all set for a satisfying experience. Now that’s how you make a fruit brandy!

7. Glen Fargo American Malty Whiskey

According to famous American television host Johnny Carson, “Happiness is having a rare steak, a bottle of whisky and a dog to eat the rare steak.” While we may not have rare steak to feed to our furry friend, we still have Proof Artisan Distillers’ Glen Fargo, which is just as great. Made from non-GMO malted barley and double-barreled, this classic is properly dry with a mild finish -- a characteristic of any gentleman’s drink.
