"Let me preface this with a simple statement - This will not be everyone’s cup of tea but it was so fun trying to come up with this!
451 Spirits here in Columbus creates some fantastic and original spirits. Hands down their most off the wall offering is Pizza Pie’chuga. Ill let them explain it to you - “Pizza Pie’Chuga- Inspired by a relatively obscure spirit produced in southern Mexico, we decided to put our own twist on it and partnered with one of our favorite pizza makers. White whiskey gets infused with sun-dried tomato, garlic, basil , pepperoni and whole slices of pizza before being re-distilled.”
For Cartoon Cocktail Saturday, this one hit me like a lighting bolt. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles meet cocktail of their dreams - a pizza flavored cocktail that has no business being as good as it is. This Michelada riff takes pizza pie’chuga and pairs it with citrus flavors to play on the acidity you get from tomato’s and brings a savory citrus sipper that would shell shock any Bloody Mary and send it packing. This was such a fun challenge to make something with such a unique product. At the end of the day not every cocktail is going to be for every person but if you’re having fun, that’s half the challenge. ",
