Given that our Silver rye whiskey is finished in a chardonnay barrel, it should come as no surprise that a cocktail made with muddled grapes ends up tasting so delicious. The addition of tart hibiscus to the mix makes this a brightly colored but deceptively subtle cocktail, lacking the overwhelming sweetness one might expect. A refreshing and daring drink.
