Death’s Door Spirits: Bringing Sustainability to Spritis & Drinks to You at TECH cocktail Chicago 8

Reading time: 2 - 3 minutes
One of our favorite local businesses, Death’s Door Spirits, has created an awesome drink menu that will be available at the TECH cocktail 8 mixer on May 29th (register here if you haven’t already - space is limited).
Not only are these drinks all phenomenal but they are also made with Death’s Door vodka, gin and whiskey. Why should you care if the drinks are made from DD spirits? Well, I am glad you asked.
Death’s Door is based in Wisconsin and their products are are distilled from grain grown for them in Wisconsin so they are truly local sustainable spirits and this is why we’re proud to be working with them (longer company story here). Plus we really like the founder, Brian (who is quite the mixologist), and his products are simply amazing - top shelf without a doubt.
Without further adieu here is the drink menu that Brian created for us including two TECH cocktail signature drinks. This menu will be available on May 29th at the TECH cocktail mixer (along with beer and wine as well per usual):
TECH-Tonic
2 oz Death’s Door White Whiskey
¼ oz blue curacao
5 oz tonic water
Add ingredients to a highball glass filled with ice. Garnish with lime wedge
TECH-tini (that’s right - it is the signature drink from our logo!)
2 oz Death’s Door Vodka
1/4 oz triple sec
1/4 oz blue curacao
Mix all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Strain into a chilled martini glass.
Classic Wisconsin Martini
3 oz Death’s Door Gin (or Vodka)
¼ oz dry Vermouth
Pour vermouth into shaker and coat insides. Shake out and add ice and gin. Stir until cold and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a skewer of olives and Wisconsin cheese.
The Gin Sling
1 1/2 oz Death’s Door Gin
1 oz sweet vermouth
3/4 oz fresh lemon juice
1 oz simple syrup
1 dash angostura
Shake and strain into rocks-filled collins glass
top with seltzer.
Looking forward to seeing you all in a couple of weeks!
