New Cocktail Mixers for Summer at the Gilded Lily

New at the Gilded Lily in our gourmet food section: Stonewall Kitchen drink mixers!

Mimosa Mixer, $10.50

For a more special offering than just mixing champagne with orange juice, add champagne to the Mimosa mixer for a sweeter, more flavorful Mimosa. The mix includes a touch of tangerine flavors as well. Perfect for summer brunches.

Kir Royale Cocktail Mixer, $10.50

Enjoy the flavor of blackcurrants when you mix this with white wine or champagne. Also good with the new Berri Acai vodka from Absolut and a splash of tonic.

Bellini Mixer, $10.50

Whiskey Stones at the Gilded Lily

New at the Gilded Lily home store: Whiskey Stones. Ideal for chilling your favorite spirit without diluting its flavor. (You can use them with rum and vodka, too!)

These "Whiskey Stones" are made of soapstone from Vermont. Add three chilled stones to your next glass of whiskey. Let stand for 5 minutes and enjoy. They'll chill your drink just enough (not too much!) without melting like ice would.

These are a great host/hostess gift, bachelor party or wedding gift. A set of 9 Whiskey Stones in a muslin bag sells for just $20.50.

Swedish Cocktail Twists for Summer Cocktail Parties

We're tired of merely dressing up our cocktails by dipping the rims of the glasses in sugar. Instead, we're adding a whimsical twist to our cocktails: Party Stockholm's Swedish Cocktail Twists.

They are shaped candies meant to fit on the edge of the glass and be eaten after the cocktail is consumed.

Our assortment pack includes Espresso (use with coffee or chocolate-flavored martinis), Citron (serve in a Lemon Drop), Apple (use it to enhance your Apple Martini), and Peppermint.

Just another way to delight your guests with something delicious and a little surprising.

Tea Forte Cocktail Infusions for Summer Parties

We love to throw summertime cocktail parties - we'll devise some flimsy excuse any chance we get! Our Tea Forte Cocktail Infusions surprise our guests with their modern, refreshing flavors.

They're easy to use - just drop a cocktail infuser bag into a clean cocktail glass, then pour alcohol directly over it. Dip the infuser in and out of the alcohol a few times, then fill the glass with ice. Let it sit two minutes then serve your lucky guest.

Lavender Citrus can be used to make a Lavender Pear Martini, Cosmo de Provence, Lavender Lime Rickey,

Lemongrass Mint is used to make a Wild Mint Mojito, Lemongrass Gin & Tonic, and a
Bali Breeze.

For something a bit more exotic, try the Silkroad Chai infusion. Use it to create a spicy Chai White Russian, a Bombai Chai Rum & Tonic, or a refreshing
Peach Chai Crush.

Here at the Gilded Lily, we carry all three flavors. We also sell a combination package with all three varieties.
