With whiskey tariffs finally suspended, American distillers raise a toast
Entrepreneur
For thousands of distillers across the country, a celebration is in order. After four long years, they will finally be able to sell their whiskeys to the U.K. and EU without the burden of heavy tariffs. The Biden administration has successfully negotiated the suspension of 25% tariffs on American whiskeys imposed by the U.K. and EU following Trump-era trade disputes over steel and aluminum. The U.K.'s tariff suspension goes into effect on June 1.

Cannabis calling: CBD in drinks
Imbibe Live
The cannabis drinks trend continues to grow apace, manifesting in different ways around the world, depending on regulations regarding its use in different countries.
In the U.K., CBD – a non-psychoactive component of cannabis – is not a controlled substance, allowing drinks producers to incorporate it into their products. As a result, it’s been finding its way into a variety of drinks categories, as well as into some cocktail bars.

Phys.org
Opening a bottle of champagne traditionally marks the beginning of a festive celebration. Following the fun pop of the cork, a fizz of bubbles releases into the air, and finally, there is the pleasant tingle on the tongue.

What is organic wine exactly — and is it better for you than regular wine?
Martha Stewart
Simply put, organic wine is made from grapes that were farmed and vinified organically. This means that the farming practices used to produce the grapes do not rely on artificial chemical fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides, or herbicides. In the winery, chemicals like "Mega-Purple", commonly used in conventional wines to deepen the color of red wines, are not permitted when making organic wines.

1 Florida winery has produced the very 1st avocado wine
Tasting Table
While Florida ranks high on the list of American places to visit, it's rarely considered a wine destination. That's unless you consider its perfect weather, abundance of fruit-growing regions, and wine entrepreneurs creating vino from the luscious bounties they have on hand. In addition to Florida's well-known muscadine grapes, you'll now find fruit wines flowing from harvests of mangoes, lychees, passion fruits and dozens more.

Drinking dry in Dubai: At the heart of the Middle East's new cocktail culture
Paste Magazine
“We have this word in Italian, sfigato, which comes to mind when one goes into a bar and asks for a non-alcoholic drink. It translates to ‘an unlucky person…’ but we live in the Middle East, of course.”
So begins my conversation with Giovanni Depergola, a mixologist who has called Dubai home for over a decade. As for his passion for beverages, be they alcoholic or otherwise? Palpable.

Why did we ever stop drinking Bellinis? This peach cocktail is perfectly refreshing
Southern Living
If the South had to pledge loyalty to just one singular fruit, it would be wholly disrespectful to choose anything other than the peach. The soft, sweet, juicy, bright stone fruit stars in some of our favorite seasonal dishes, from fresh peach cobbler to homemade peach ice cream. Despite only being in-season for a short time during summer, we know to freeze and save some for whenever the hankering strikes later in the year. In the South, peach is king.
