Learn The Most Popular Cocktails In Pennsylvania

In the heart of Pennsylvania, where steel cities meet serene farmland, the Keystone Collins stands as a beloved libation. Crafted with local Pennsylvania gin, a splash of apple cider, and a hint of honey from Amish country, this cocktail pays homage to the state's agricultural roots. Another local favorite is the Liberty Bell Lemonade, blending local rye whiskey with a squeeze of Pennsylvania-grown lemons and a touch of maple syrup, creating a refreshing sip that mirrors the state's diverse landscapes. Garnishes like a sprig of thyme or a slice of juicy apple add a touch of local flair to the sensory experience, while classic highball glasses or engraved julep cups reflect Pennsylvania's blend of urban grit and rustic charm.

Pennsylvania's drinking culture, deeply tied to craft brewery tours and the camaraderie of historic taverns, is evident in cocktails like the Steel City Sling, featuring local vodka, cherry liqueur, and a splash of club soda.
