SESSION, TITO’S RAISES $2,380 FOR TUSCALOOSA METRO ANIMAL SHELTER

Session, a downtown cocktail bar, joined forces with Tito's Handmade Vodka to raise $2,380 for the Tuscaloosa Metro Animal Shelter. Session and the distillery raised the money by creating one specialty cocktail per month in which proceeds are donated back to the community. Owner Hunter Wiggins said this idea started when he first opened his doors over a year ago.

Garden & Gun - SON OF A NUTCRACKER

The Son of a Nutcracker was born from general manager Hyatt Webb’s desire to put a winter spin on a Gold Rush, one of his favorite summertime sips. “The maple syrup, bourbon, and applejack play really well together and give the drink a nice, refreshing spiced apple flavor that isn’t overpowering and is very easy to drink,” he says. As for the cocktail’s name, Webb confirms its origin: “I am a huge Elf fan and it remains one of my all-time favorite holiday movies, so the name was sort of a no-brainer.” An avowed maple syrup lover, Buddy the Elf would surely approve.
