THE STORY BEHIND THE COCKTAIL NAME
A Toast To Fun, I would like to say I'm a pretty fun and happy person most of the time and so I have created this drink to showcase my ironic sense of humour and how even the blandest of situations can be made humorous. The irony comes from my 2 main ingredients, Cabbage and Oats. I wanted to flip people’s perception on what is or isn't fun, and how better to do it than with some of the most boring and least used ingredients. My choice of hero spirit came naturally as with most spirit brands they can become too uptight and ultimately lose a little bit of flair, The Dunking of Maker's Mark into wax is a perfect example of how to keep the spice in your life without buying a pink sailboat with monkey waiters and a diamond encrusted anchor (but that does sound fun too!!).
