THE PENDENNIS CLUB COCKTAIL | AN AUTUMN TAKE

A little gin. A little apricot. A little New Orleans by way of Louisville.

A classic with a subtle seasonal twist. We’ve softened the citrus, added a whisper of maple, and let our NOLA Bitters bring a little warmth to the mix.

Bright, botanical, subtly spiced—and proof that apricot brandy deserves a place at the bar long after summer ends.

2 oz Dry Gin
¾ oz Apricot Brandy
½ oz Fresh Lemon Juice
¼ oz Maple Syrup
4 dashes Honest John NOLA Bitters

Add everything to a shaker with ice and shake until the tin is frosty. Strain into a chilled coupe—or over a large cube in a rocks glass.

Garnish with a lemon twist and a healthy sprig of fresh mint.

For crisp evenings, changing leaves, and one more round.

Good drinks bring people together.

And if we’re lucky, they teach us a thing or two along the way.

A little throwback to one of our Techniques cocktail classes, where we spent our afternoon exploring classic cocktails, learning a few tricks behind the bar, and discovering that the best part of making a drink is often the company you’re making it with.

Good drinks. Good people. A little knowledge worth sharing. 🖤

BANANAS FOSTER RUM SWIZZLE

Who says crushed ice is just for summer?

Dark rum, a splash of rye, fresh apple c***r, warm cinnamon, and a few generous dashes of Honest John Bananas Foster Bitters.

A little tropical. A little autumnal. Entirely appropriate for October.

THE RECIPE

2 oz Dark Rum
½ oz Rye Wh***ey
½ oz Fresh Lime Juice
¾ oz Apple C***r
¼ oz Rich Cinnamon-Demerara Syrup (2:1)
4 dashes Honest John Bananas Foster Bitters

METHOD

Add all ingredients to a glass with crushed ice. Swizzle or stir vigorously until well chilled. Top with additional crushed ice.

Garnish with a banana slice and pineapple frond.

A little farther from everything.

A little closer to what matters.

Hope you find a little time to slow down this week. 🌲

Pick your poison. We’ll provide the bitters.

We took our 10 core flavors and paired them up according to the spirits they play particularly well with.

Wh***ey. Gin. Vodka. Tequila. Rum.

Each Spirited Gift Set includes two 1 oz bottles of Honest John Bitters, chosen to make your favorite spirit a little more interesting.

$20 each — or bring the whole bar home with all five sets for $75.

For the wh***ey drinker. The gin person. The tequila enthusiast. The friend whose bar cart is considerably better stocked than yours.

Or, y’know… yourself. We fully support that decision.

Sweaters out.
Firewood stacked.
Cabin weekends booked.
Bar cart stocked.

And maybe make a little extra room on that bar cart—because Honest John has joined the GQ FALL BOX this season.

We can’t think of a better way to welcome our favorite time of year.

See you at cocktail hour. 🥃
