Autumn heralds the return of football season, and with it, the cherished tradition of tailgating. When it comes to preparing for a football pre-party, look no further than our trusted friend and Brown-Forman Ambassador, Whiskey Pete Wagner. Pete recently joined host Greg Hansberry and captivated Mix listeners with an enticing array of new beverage options, perfect for the upcoming game day festivities—whether you’re cheering at the stadium or hosting a celebration at home.
If you’re catching an early game, consider trying the Jack Daniel’s Bonded Buckeye or the Herradura Tequila Michelada, a delightful twist on the classic Bloody Mary with an added boozy kick. For those seeking a lighter and more seasonal flavor, the Fords Gin Autumn Fizz is a splendid choice. And if you appreciate the elegance of simplicity, you absolutely must experience the Diplomatico Daiquiri. The best part? These cocktails are crafted from easily accessible and budget-friendly ingredients, ensuring you’re the star of your next pre-game gathering.
As we revel in the joy of these football festivities, let’s also remember the importance of responsible drinking, no matter where you choose to celebrate this football season.
