whoa-nellie

Originating at the Swizzle Stick Bar in New Orleans, as a tribute to the first Mardi Gras after Hurricane Katrina, “Whoa, Nellie!” pairs rye whiskey and dark rum together. It goes great with hearty summer dishes such as grilled sausage or grilled flatiron steak. In addition to complimenting a summer meal, it’s a go-to cocktail to get the party started. What’s your favorite go-to cocktail?
