Split is the newest creation from New Alchemy Distilling and it's a clarified milk punch cocktail that's conveniently packaged by the can.
The high demand for clarified cocktails in bars reflects consumers' growing interest in both the art and science of mixology. Now, there's a new wave of ready-to-drink clarified cocktails that enable enthusiasts to savor these crystal-clear concoctions from the comfort of their homes, bringing a touch of the cocktail lounge experience to their own living rooms.
Split gets its name from the way milk punch is made by combining everything but the milk until the end, which causes the mixture to split, and the curds are strained, leaving behind only clear liquid. Split is touted as "the epitome of locally made" with just a handful of ingredients, including citrus juice and upcycled rennet-produced whey.
