Strawberry Manhattan Mixer

First we take Manhattan. Not a regular Manhattan cocktail, but this Strawberry Manhattan mixer that gives a new take on the subtly sweet standard. Start with its hibiscus-infused organic Darjeeling tea, strawberry juice, and cane sugar, then add rye for a more traditional Manhattan or give it a spin with tequila or plain seltzer.

Jennie Ripps and Maria Littlefield are the masterminds behind Owl's Brew tea-based booze boosters. By combing their favorite things — good tea and good alcohol — they made something even better. The company's handcrafted small batch brews are intended for a variety of spirits, including, but not limited to, vodka, tequila, rum, whiskey, gin, or champagne. Ideal on the rocks or shaken, Owl's Brew blends are all about preference. Each batch is brewed in Vermont in large kettles, and then sweetened, packed, and bottled for your pleasure.
