No matter where you live in Canada, summer is short. So make the most of it while you can. It’s time to relax, take things easy and get outdoors. Unless, of course, you’re our Bon Vivant columnist Michael White, in which case you’ll be finding a cool, dark drinking den to hide out in.
In this issue we make summer entertaining as simple as possible. Charlene Rooke rounds up a
selection of local craft mixers just in time for the return of the highball. Meanwhile, Justin Taylor shows us how to make bottled and other big-batch cocktails for your next backyard bash. Don’t want to stay home? Charlene plots out a spirited road trip through wine country in Still Life.
We have much more for you to drink in, too: Tim Pawsey revisits the issue of age statements, Aileen Lalor chats with the blender of the world’s best whisky, our tasting panel samples B.C. vodka and we discover the
best job ever in our look at brand ambassadors. All this plus news and distillery listings.
