If there is one thing that can unite America, it might very well be the love of peanut butter. According to the National Peanut Board, “over 90 percent of American households have peanut butter in their pantry,” says Bryan Smith, Hard Truth Master Distiller.
“With peanut-flavored spirits on the rise, we developed a product that captures that unique peanut brittle taste in a contemporary, creamy and peanut-rich cream we call Hard Truth Peanut Brittle Bourbon Cream.”
Smith also offer recommends Hard Truth Peanut Butter Whiskey as a creative and unique spirit that is sweet, salty, and a great addition to any cocktail creator’s back bar. Give these two cocktails a mix and join in the peanut-mania!
