Many local craft cocktail bars include their own liquors infused with various flavors to add dimension to their drinks, and while they can seem complex, creating your own—even an award-winning one—at home is much easier than it might sound. Anne Hester, bar manager at Southernside Brewing Co., breaks down the simple process and also shares her winning recipe.

Can’t decide if you want a beer or a cocktail? No worries. This smooth summer sipper is made with Southernside Brewing Co.’s house-brewed Unity Park ale, Lunazul tequila, lime, orange juice, Cointreau, and simple syrup. (...) "This light, delicious drink is perfect for cooling down after a bike ride on the Swamp Rabbit Trail, playing with your family in the huge fields of the park, or sipping in our expansive outdoor space with friends & family."
