Almond Cow’s Guide to Father’s Day Drinks and Cocktails

This Sunday, June 16th is Father’s Day. If you like to give presents to show you care, hopefully by now you’ve already purchased, or at least have gift ideas for Father’s Day. Or, if your dad isn’t into gifts, and would rather sit down to a meal together, you can plan a Father’s Day menu that will definitely make him feel appreciated.

But whether you want to show your appreciation wrapped in a bow, or served on a plate, you can make the gesture all the more special by pairing it with a Father’s Day cocktail. At Almond Cow, we have plenty of cocktails and mocktails for Father’s Day that your dad is going to love. No matter his taste preferences, whether he likes a spirit or something non-alcoholic, we’ve got the perfect thing to sip this Sunday.

Almond Cow’s Classic Bloody Mary

Enjoy a Traditional Bloody Mary for a Brunch Cocktail as Classic as Your Pops

Nothing says ‘brunch’ quite like a Bloody Mary. This tomato juice-based cocktail was originally crafted over 100 years ago. While the story of its origins vary, there’s no denying that it’s the best way to start any Father’s Day celebrations.

Almond Cow’s Bloody Mary recipe uses a traditional mix of tomato juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce as a base. The ingredients that are typically garnishes, like lemons, celery, salt, and pepper are then added to the filter basket, to perfectly emulsify the garnish flavor into the drink. Once well-combined, pour into a highball glass and top with your dad’s favorites, like extra celery tops, pickles, olives.

Once you have the Bloody Mary base down, get creative with it! Some people are topping their extraordinary Bloody Mary’s with everything from beer, to bacon, to grilled cheese sandwiches!

Refreshing Coconut Watermelon Cooler

Sometimes all dads want for their special day is to be outside to enjoy the sun and the outdoors. If that sounds like your dad, do Pops a favor and make sure he stays hydrated.

There’s no better way for Dad to quench his thirst this Father’s Day than by drinking a large glass of Almond Cow’s Coconut Watermelon Cooler. Fresh watermelon, mint, lime, and coconut water come together over ice to create a beautiful drink to help Dad to beat the heat. Pour it over ice, and garnish with an extra sprig of mint, slice of lime, or even a small cut of watermelon.

With zero added sugars, it’s a surprisingly healthy drink that dad will enjoy as an option for a non-alcoholic cocktail this Father’s Day.
