Labor Day entertaining?
If you’re looking for something more interesting for your guests than a can of beer or a glass of rosé, why not try mixing up a few smoky scotch cocktails? Whether you’re in the mood to extend your summer with a fruity drink or would rather hop into fall flavors, Laphroaig always provides distinct character and complexity that will shake up your cocktail.
Cheers!
