Bison Patch Smash

Cocktail Description

The Bison Patch Smash brings together the grassy, almost hay-like character of Polish bison grass vodka with the juicy sweetness of fresh watermelon and tart raspberries.

This refreshing highball delivers a bright, fruity flavor profile with subtle herbal notes that keep things interesting—the bison grass vodka adds an unexpected savory dimension that prevents the drink from becoming overly sweet. You'll taste ripe watermelon up front, followed by the tang of muddled raspberries, while the Giffard sugar cane syrup rounds everything out with a clean sweetness. This is a perfect warm-weather sipper for backyard gatherings, Sunday brunches, or late afternoon relaxation when you want something light and revitalizing. The muddling step requires a bit of effort, but otherwise this cocktail comes together quickly with just a shake and strain. Since it's fruit-forward with an herbal twist, pair it with grilled chicken skewers, fresh salads with goat cheese, or light appetizers like bruschetta or shrimp cocktail. The raspberries floating on top add a pop of color that makes this drink as pretty as it is drinkable.
