We’re all looking for ways to relax; for many, that involves camping. While some work to get off the grid (and do so with a no-frills, rustic approach), the rest of us want a few creature comforts. Enter: the camp minibar. As anyone who’s spent a little time outside in the woods will tell you, one of the best parts about camping is a boozy drink in said woods. The trick, however, is to not bring the entire kitchen sink with you—just the essentials. Find out our top tips on how to add a little excellence to your campground cocktail.

7 Whiskeys From Across the Globe You Should Be Drinking Right Now

Erin McGrady It’s been a whiskey kind of year for us. Lately we’ve been drawn to it like a moth to a flame. Whiskey is tasty, it’s comforting, and it’s versatile. When it comes to camping, this is our reach-for spirit because you can drink it in several different ways: neat (no minibar required), on ice (also minimalist), or in a mixed drink. We love all three options and have been rotating between Sagamore Spirit Rye Whisky, Distillery 291’s Fresh Whiskey, Buchanan’s 12-Year-Old Deluxe Whisky, and Singleton 12-Year-Old Single Malt Whisky. What we’re mixing up at camp:

Erin McGrady Camp Counselor Cocktail

  1. Pour 2 oz of Sagamore Spirit whiskey into glass or cup.
  2. Pour 3 oz watermelon kombucha into glass. (We used GT’s Synergy Watermelon Wonder.)
  3. Squeeze lime to equal .75 oz, or ¾ of the smaller side of the jigger, into glass.
  4. Pour .75 oz Clément Creole Shrubb into glass.
  5. Fill with large ice.
  6. Stir to blend.
  7. Garnish with a small sprig of fresh mint and tuck into top of glass.
  8. Kick back and enjoy.
