November Cocktail of the Month: The Great Pumpkin Drink

Here at Bryant’s Cocktail Lounge, November always marks the beginning of our favorite time of the year- the Holiday Season.  The fall crisp air, the festive parties, and (of course) the cocktails.

The Great Pumpkin Ice Cream Drink
Only $5 during Old Fashioned
Cocktail Hour!

This is the time of year we start moving away from the clear spirits of summer in to the dark spirits of winter.  ‘Tis the season of Whiskey, Brandy, and Calvados, mixed with amaros and spices most commonly associated with winter dishes and desserts.  Who doesn’t like the flavors of cinnamon, cardamom, and clove on a cold snowy day? 

The most exciting holiday drinking tradition is when we take these traditional flavors and mix them with ice cream, creating the most delicious Wisconsin pastime- the ice cream drink.  During the winter months grasshoppers, brandy alexanders, and cherry benjamins become as popular as popular as scarves, hats, and those funny little furry boots. 

For our November Cocktail of the Month, we have decided to go 100% in to the Holiday Season and offer our Great Pumpkin Ice Cream Drink for a very special price during Old Fashioned Cocktail Hour.  No subtlety here- just pure pumpkin goodness, ginger, and spices mixed with the finest ice cream.  And as always we top our ice cream drinks are topped with homemade whipped cream. 

Stop in for Old Fashioned Cocktail Hour, from 5-9 Tuesday through Thursday to get our small Pumpkin Ice Cream drink for only $5.  Ice cream not your thing?  We have over 45 other cocktails on special for half price.    

Peanut Butter Scare

Our creamy peanut butter ice cream drink, the ET, is made with real peanut butter.  Naturally, we were shocked to hear about the Salmonella found in peanut butter around the nation.

We did some investigation and found that our customers are not at risk if they consumed an ET at Bryant's Cocktail Lounge.

We only use Reese's peanut butter in our ice cream drinks.  We have found that Reese's makes the best peanut butter, which gives the ET a special taste.  According to Hershey's, who makes the Reese's peanut butter, there are no peanuts from the Peanut Corporation of America used in and Reese's product.  Hershey's processes all their own peanuts in their own plants. 

Therefore, there is no risk of Salmonella in our peanut butter products.
