While bars are slowly starting to reopen, the service industry is still looking for ways to provide for socially distant consumers, leading one Detroit bar to retail Kiesling's bottled cocktails, which are helping drinkers craft their own libations at home.
These cocktail sets arrive with everything one might need to create the perfect drink - from spirits to garnish. Each set is crafted from inside of the bar, helping consumers connect and support their favorite local establishment. What's more is that these bottled cocktails are available for delivery or curb side pickup, helping individuals get a taste for their favorite craft drink without risking their wellbeing. Some of the offered drinks include the Kiesling Bourbon Old Fashioned, or the Manhattan.
