2025 Rum Runner Secret Cocktail Menu
Vesper Martini
$16 - $12
The famed “James Bond Martini”, but with St. Johnsbury Distillery’s Artisanal Spirits! Both our Vermont Vodka & St. Johnsbury Gin, Lillet Blanc, & Orange Bitters. 007 would have it “Shaken, not stirred” but we can do it however you’d like!
Mai Tai $15 - $11
One of the most recognized “tiki drinks” in the world, this tasty tropical treat was first created in 1944 by “Trader Vic”, in the bay area of Cali. The name derives from the Tahitian word maita’i which means “the best” or “out of this world”- and with our handcrafted rums used in the recipe, we couldn’t agree more! Our variation used a base of both our Pirate Dan’s Vermont Rum and Backwoods Reserve Aged Rum, along with fresh lime, Cointreau, orgeat (almond) syrup, and finished a float of our Dark Maple Rum & Luxardo cherry juice.
Hummingway
$15 - $11
While spending some time in Cuba, Ernest Hemmingway was famed for ordering his daiquiris in a particular way- twice the amount of rum and with the addition of both grapefruit and Luxardo, which is an Italian maraschino liqueur; hence was born the Hemmingway Daiquiri. For a fun riff on this drink we’re using a split base with our Elderflower Rum and Pirate Dan’s Vermont Rum (twice the rum!), fresh squeezed grapefruit juice, lime, Luxardo, and plum bitters.
Al Capone - $13 - $9
Being the most famous gangster in the world, we are honored to have a player piano here at our speakeasy that once belonged to the Al Capone estate in Jupiter, Florida! Mr. Capone’s favorite cocktail was called the South Side Fizz, and so in honor of that we created our own version with a slight tweak. This refreshing and bright drink uses our barrel aged reserve gin as a base, with fresh lemon, house mint syrup, black walnut bitters, an egg white, and a splash of Fever Tree club soda.
Ah the Sazerac- debatably the oldest cocktail in America, the official cocktail of New Orleans, and once made with Brandy now with Rye. What isn’t debatable is that this close cousin of the Ol’ Fashioned is delicious and a great way to highlight our Willoughby Whiskey Straight Rye! Stirred over ice with sugar, Peychaud’s Bitters, and a misting of Absinthe- garnished with an expressed lemon peel.
*Not available until 4/23/25
Sazerac - $14 - $10
Double Barrel - $15 - $11
This cocktail highlights two of our new releases from Kingdom Spirits, Burke Bourbon and Orleans Orange Whiskey! Muddled with sugar, lime, and whichever fruit is in season or we felt inspired by! Ask your server for today’s variation.
