As the saying goes, “It’s 5 o’clock somewhere!” Although bars and restaurants have slowly started bringing back happy hour — especially now that warmer weather has made its way back to many parts of the country — if the pandemic has taught us anything it’s that we can do more for ourselves at home than we ever thought we could before. That being said, why not add becoming an amateur mixologist to the list of pandemic skills that you’ve picked up?

Haus
If you’re unfamiliar with aperitifs, Haus notes that the category of spirits consists of “complex flavors that typically come from fruits, herbs, roots, and botanicals.” While their flavor profiles can range anywhere from on the bitter side to very sweet, and/or quite fruity, the brand said that generally the spirits are “low-ABV (less alcohol than whiskey, more than wine), which make them perfect for enjoying throughout the evening on the rocks or with simple mixers like soda or tonic.”
With an abundance of intriguing and delicious flavor combinations like Citrus Flower, Yuzu Ginger, Peach Passionfruit, Rose Rosé, Spiced Cherry, and Grapefruit Jalapeno, a monthly subscription starts at $35.
If you’re not sure which one of the brand’s flavors you’d be most interesting in trying, find their Sampler Kit here.
