RECIPES

Infusions are just the beginning.

A bottle of horseradish flavored water with a label featuring a cartoon character and the words 'Horseradish' and 'Kachka.' The bottle is placed on a peach-colored background, with a small piece of horseradish root and horseradish shavings nearby.

Our favorite way to drink infusions is ice cold in a shot glass. But we’ve got to admit: with their acidity and the way they capture flavors, they are kind of the ideal cocktail ingredient.

Here are some of our popular infusion cocktail recipes for you to recreate at home.

Where To Buy

BLOODY MASHA

Surprisingly, there isn’t a Bloody Mary tradition in Russia, despite a well-demonstrated supply of vodka, hangovers, horseradish, and all sorts of pickled accoutrements! Chef Bonnie Morales created this recipe with the help of her brother, Simon, who is a passionate Bloody Mary drinker.

Yields 1 Pint

1 tsp Caraway Seeds
1 tsp Black Peppercorns
1 tsp Coriander Seeds
1 tsp Brown Mustard Seeds
6 oz Campbell’s Tomato Juice
2 1/4 oz Horseradish Vodka
2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Chopped Fresh Dill
1/2 tsp Prepared Horseradish
1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
Garnishes of your choice (Pickles, Cured Meats, Smoked Fish, Cheese, Fresh Herbs, etc.!)

Heat a small skillet over medium heat and toast the caraway seeds, peppercorns, coriander seeds, and mustard seeds, stirring until aromatic — a minute or two. Pulverize in a spice grinder and toss the ground spices into a mixing bowl along with remaining ingredients. Whisk until combined, then taste to adjust seasonings.

Serve over ice with skewered garnishes of your choice.

HORSERADISH MARTINI

Quick stir, strain into a chilled martini glass, and garnish with a cocktail onion.

BLENDED MOSCOW MULE

3 oz Ginger Beer (We recommend something spicy like Fever Tree)
