The Hilhaven Lodge Fireside is the official cocktail of The Emmys
LET’S FACE IT: AS MUCH AS YOU’D LIKE TO BE MINGLING WITH REESE WITHERSPOON, LAURA Dern and Nicole Kidman at The Governors Ball on September 17, the official Emmy Awards after-party, most of us will be sitting at home on the couch in pajamas. But there is a way to feel like you’re part of the action at the Los Angeles Convention Center anyway—at the very least, you can make this year’s official cocktail right at home. Award-winning bartender and Crafthouse founder Charles Jolly designed the signature drink with The Hilhaven Lodge Blended Straight American Whiskey, a collaboration brand between Diageo and movie mogul Brett Ratner, as well as absinthe, spiced pear liqueur and fresh lemon juice. The result, in our opinion, is about as award-worthy as they come.
