“And, as in uffish thought he stood,

The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,

Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,

And burbled as it came!”

-“The Jabberwocky” by Lewis Carroll in Alice Through the Looking Glass

 

A liqueur flavored with Chipotle Peppers, Manzano Peppers, Counter Culture Coffee Beans, Chicory, Eucalyptus & Lemongrass. 30% ABV. Sweetened with Raw Sugar.

We need to say this plainly: The Jabberwock is an absolute F■■■ing beast. It starts out with a nice rich flavor of coffee & chicory, that follows with a smoky peppery heat dialed up to 11. This thing is spicy. Extra Spicy. We told you so. No really, don’t just nod along, we actually mean this. We are not the kind of people who think adding pepper to mashed potatoes is ‘kicking it up a notch.’ We are the sriracha-on-our-morning-eggs type of spicy food lovers. And this liqueur is a love song to the flavors spicy, bitter, and bold.

Besides being a shooter for masochists, the Jabberwock can add a serious bite to any cocktail. Even just a quick rinse of the inside of a glass will give your cocktail a smoky and spicy edge. You can even cook with it if you’d like to. You’re an “adult,” you can do anything you like (if you are not an adult, get the heck out of here and go ride your hoverboard around chasing pokemon, or whatever it is you under-21 people do).

Really though. This thing has a bit of heat.

Jabberwock Cocktails

The Jabberwock is an absolute beast of a liqueur on its own. But with such aggressive flavors, only a little will go a long way.
Frumious & Fearsome

0.5 oz Jabberwock
1 oz White Rum
1 oz sour mix
1 oz orange juice

Shake thoroughly with ice and serve on the rocks.

Wockango

1 oz Jabberwock
2 oz Mango Nectar

Mix and serve on the rocks. Not particularly strong in alcohol, but has an abundance of flavor stretching all across the palate.

Darker & Stormier

1.5 oz Jabberwock
3 oz Ginger Ale

Enjoy over the rocks in a tall glass. One of the best ways to counter the heat, but only just a bit. ???
