Download 10 free rhubarb drink recipes — cocktails and mocktails — designed for home bartenders who want something impressive without a bartending degree.
One base recipe. Ten drinks. Every occasion from brunch to late-night covered.
No spam. Just your recipes and the occasional opinionated newsletter about cocktails.
Every spring it happens. The rhubarb comes up, you're excited, you cut a bunch of it — and then it sits on the counter while you figure out what to do with it that isn't pie.
Maybe you've made a simple syrup before. Maybe you've done a gin and tonic with it. But it still feels like you're not quite unlocking what rhubarb can actually do.
That's the gap this collection fills. Rhubarb is one of the most underrated cocktail ingredients around — tart, seasonal, and genuinely impressive when you know how to use it. This is how you learn to use it.
"Rhubarb is so relentlessly misunderstood that the moment you hand someone a rhubarb cocktail, you automatically look like you know something they don't."
— Spirit of the WenchHere's exactly what you're downloading:
The master recipe that unlocks four other drinks in this collection. Takes 10 minutes, uses three ingredients, and your kitchen will smell incredible. This is where everyone starts.
From an easy Rhubarb Mule to a proper Negroni riff to a show-off Old Fashioned. Something for every palate and skill level.
Not "cocktails without the alcohol." Actual, complex, impressive drinks designed to stand on their own — and make non-drinkers feel included rather than accommodated.
Easy / A Little Fancy / Show-Off Level. So you know exactly what you're getting into before you start.
The one thing most people get wrong, or the one thing that makes it noticeably better. Not padding — actual useful information.
Want to make your own rhubarb bitters, shrubs, or cordial? Each relevant recipe links to a full how-to on the site. Go as deep as you want.
Most cocktail recipe collections fail at home because they're either too simple to feel special, or so complicated that you need a mise en place and three specialty ingredients you'll never use again.
This one is built differently. Everything in the collection flows from a single master recipe — The Base — a rhubarb simple syrup that takes 10 minutes and costs about two dollars to make. From there, you have the key ingredient for four cocktails and two mocktails. The rest of the collection is built on accessible, familiar spirits and ingredients you probably already have.
The goal isn't to make you a bartender. It's to give you ten drinks you can confidently make at home — and one or two that will genuinely impress someone this season.
Rhubarb season is short. This collection is how you make the most of every stalk — and understand why it belongs in a glass, not just a crumble.
Spirit of the Wench is a cocktail content brand for home bartenders who want to drink well without the pretension. The focus is on seasonal ingredients, Canadian distilleries, and cocktail knowledge that's actually useful — explained by someone who's enthusiastic about it rather than precious about it.
The site's rhubarb content covers everything from bitters and infusions to shrubs and cordial, and this collection is the natural next step: all that ingredient knowledge, turned into drinks you can make tonight. Rhubarb season doesn't wait. Might as well be ready for it.
