Analog Vodka meets handcrafted cocktails

Monday, January 11, 2016

We’re back with another handcrafted cocktail feature. This time ... Analog Vodka!

Made with 100% brewers malt and our proprietary “Doggie” yeast, it’s crisp with a viscous sweetness of caramelized sugar and malted barley, with a cleansing minerality - a sipping vodka for whiskey drinkers.

It also happens to make one tasty cocktail. These four recipes embody the core of Dogfish Head’s 20-year commitment to quality and creativity - much like our Analog Vodka.

Moscow Mule

1/2 oz fresh lime juice
3/4 oz ginger syrup (ours is house made from freshly squeezed ginger juice and simple syrup)
2 oz Dogfish Head Analog Vodka
Soda Water
Combine first three ingredients in a mixing glass. Whip with 1 cube. Pour into an ice-filled Collins glass. Top with soda. Garnish with a lime and a piece of dried candied ginger on a pick. 

 

Tarragon Lemonade

1 oz fresh lemon juice
1 oz house made tarragon simple syrup
2 oz Dogfish Head Analog Vodka
Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass. Shake and dump into a pint glass. Top with fresh ice. Garnish with a lemon wheel and a sprig of fresh tarragon. 

 

Dirty Vodka Martini

3 oz Dogfish Head Analog Vodka
1/2 oz Brine
In a mixing glass, stir all ingredients until thoroughly chilled and strain into a martini glass or coupe. Garnish with olives or a lemon twist. 

 

Eastern Standard

Handclap mint leaves (or basil works)
3 slices cucumber
1 oz fresh lime juice
3/4 oz simple syrup
2 oz Dogfish Head Analog Vodka
In a mixing glass, muddle cucumbers and add a handclap of mint. Add additional ingredients. Shake and strain into a martini glass and garnish with a slice of cucumber. 

 

These are just the start to the goodness you can craft in your glass with our Analog Vodka. Have some fun and shake it up!
