I love my wine and champagne, but every now and then, I enjoy having a glass of something a little bit harder such as Spirits. Whether you enjoy using liquor to make mixed drinks or enjoying the taste straight, you’re going to want to keep reading.

Sonoma Vodka
The Hanson Family Owned Distillery’s Sonoma Vodka is one of my go-to’s. They make hand-crafted vodka in small bathes from organic grapes, infused with whole organic ingredients. These local brands are just as high-quality as the global brands… lucky for me, it’s close enough to remain stocked in the kitchen.
