As we wrap up our exhaustive National Vodka Day coverage and wait for the next “National ____ Day” to arrive, we have a small, successful craft distiller on hand for a final couple recipes.
Boston’s Bully Boy Distillers was recently awarded the Gold Medal at the 2014 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
Reportedly inspired by the “discovery of their great-grandfather’s farmhouse vault holding craft spirits dating back to the Prohibition era, Bully Boy founders Will and Dave Willis began their journey of small-batch distilling in 2010.” They believe “vodka flavored vodka,” and these recipes prove it.
