The best part of awards season is watching all the shows with your S.O., family, or roomates — they’re the only shows you’re all allowed to talk through! And nothing gets the peanut gallery off to a rollicking and rowdy start like a fizzy signature cocktail.

Our version of The Premiere is a fantastic choice: The name is totally apropos and it has a very classy demeanor. The color is light and peachy, the flavor is citrus punch with a hint of ginger spice and the Bénédictine’s honey-and-herbs base note.


Our tips: Go fancy with your ice. You don’t want it to melt into your drink and water it down, so use a big, chunky rock — round or square — or a long, tall Collins rock.
