<p>Looking for the perfect way to enjoy all of the good vibes of summer… without needing to pack up your car and head to the beach? We’ve got ya covered with the ideal summer drink: <a rel=)
Bushwacker Spirits. This Alabama-founded drink tastes like the “beach in a bottle”, so we’re sharing three ways YOU can bring the beach to Birmingham with Bushwacker Spirits.
Bringing the beach to Birmingham one bottle at a time 🌴
If you still haven’t gotten your hands on a bottle of Bushwacker, get ready to change your summer for the better. Bushwackers are a frozen cocktail with cream, chocolate and coconut… AKA the perfect tropical drink for sitting poolside or beachside.
But what if you’re not making the trek to the shore this summer and you don’t want to spend the time buying everything needed for a Bushwacker? We’re talking fresh ingredients, multiple liquors, ice and a blender… which some of us may or may not own. There’s an easier solution.
Alabama locals Carter Echols and Michael Smith founded Bushwacker Spirits to make a shelf-stable product with Caribbean Rum, real dairy cream, natural coconut, coffee and chocolate flavors. Their goal? To bring the taste of the beach to you!
This “Beach in a Bottle” truly bottles the taste of summer.
