What a wonderful time of year in Michigan. The sun shines down with a fervor, temperatures inspire us to ditch our sweaters, people crawl out of the woodwork, and refreshing drinks start to flow. An indescribable buzz infiltrates Michiganders everywhere, while visions of lakes, beaches, baseball, vacations, backyard barbecues, and memorable sunsets fill our heads.

If you ask us, there’s no better way to relish the spring and summer seasons than with a refreshing drink on a sunny day. When it comes to next-level cocktails in Grand Rapids to quench your thirst, Long Road Distillers delivers.

We fell in love with the Long Road’s A.B. Garden cocktail, a delightfully refreshing combination of their very own gin distilled from 100% Michigan red winter wheat, cucumber, green tea, mint, and lime. Sipping one of these perfectly-balanced cocktails on a warm day is what life is all about.

You really can’t go wrong with anything on Long Road’s menu, so don’t be shy about exploring their cocktails featuring their award-winning spirits. Don’t forget to grab a bottle for the road, like their Aquavit that recently won Best of Show and Best in Class at the 2017 American Craft Spirits Association Awards.
