It’s all about dad this weekend! And what do dad’s love more than most… uh, dad things? Whisky! We’ve been obsessing over the new Kavi Reserve – a small batch cold-brewed coffee blended Canadian Whisky (say that 3 times fast!) that’s expertly crafted with all natural ingredients. The coffee and whisky are made specifically to compliment each other, resulting in something seriously delicious, and totally unique. And at Father’s Day brunch we’ll take all the caffeine we can get! So we had to rise to the challenge of working this whisky into an epic mimosa… and we were blown away by the results!
For more on Kavi Reserve visit their website, and get it at the LCBO! Check out our Kavi Reserve #MimosaHacks below…
