How to be a "Hard Chaw" - Episode 5 Dec 31, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, Rich and Halley literally mix up some cocktails with Colm O'Neill, creator of Hard Chaw Irish Cream. Just like its name implies, Hard Chaw was born out of the need for a more potent Irish Whiskey cream that contains 50% more alcohol by volume than the traditional Irish Cream. That's right, this spirit packs a punch (quite literally). Whether you're mixing up an espresso martini or sipping it over ice, it's a great liqueur to get cozy with at après ski.

There is also some interesting talk of fat washing breakfast meats for cocktails and some hilarious shot ski stories.
