Freaker Friday: Bittermilk!


When history looks back on the time and place we've all found ourselves living in, what will be the overriding cultural themes? There may be a lot of easy targets for the naysayers (*cue in Nickleback*), but we here at Freaker USA are officially optimists., and the craftiness of this decade is overwhelming.

Have you heard of Pinterest? It's a place where women show each other how to make magical dolphins out of bananas. Etsy? It's where you can buy felt gnome costumes. FOR YOUR CHICKENS. This generation understand "crafty," and no industry has taken it to the extreme more than the fancypants booze hounds. And that is a great thing. Today, we pay our respects.

WHAT YOU'RE WINNING: We have 5 care packages this week featuring the luxurious craft of Bittermilk!

In their own words, "Bittermilk is a line of cocktail mixers made for cocktail enthusiasts by bartenders with real ingredients. Crafted and bottled by human hands in Charleston, SC. The labor is in the bottle, just add booze."

And in our words, Bittermilk has figured out a way to put the luxury of Charleston's craft cocktail culture in a bottle. Which is impressive, brilliant, and ...heroic. Yes. Heroic. If you've ever had a craft cocktail in Charleston, but do not live in Charleston, you'll agree the that the booze wizards bringing Charleston's brand of cocktail to you in the comfort of your own home are heroes.

Winners get their choice of Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Fashioned, Charred Grapefruit Tonic, Smoked Honey Whiskey Sour, New Orleans Style Old Fashioned Rouge, or a Tom Collins with Elderflowers and Hops. Nom? Nom.

Each winner also gets a Freaker of their choice!

HOW TO ENTER: Get on Instagram, follow @drinkbittermilk, and show us the craftiest way that you treat yourself. Use the hashtag #FreakerMilk so we can find your entry!
