Forge & Foundry Distillery is a must stop for us when we go to downtown Stillwater.
I am going to be completely honest: I have only ever had one cocktail from there, but luckily I’ve been with enough people who have tried other ones to showcase them haha.
Drinks:
Wake Me Up Before You Go Girl: Forge & Foundry Vodka, Espresso, maple, brown sugar, black walnut creme
This cocktail is my absolute favorite and the only one I’ve ever had there. I love it so much I’ve purchased the to-go kit to make them at home.
I can’t help it. Espresso cocktails are my love language.


Farmer’s Market: Forge & Foundry Olive Oil Washed Vodka, Tomatoes, White Balsamic, Lemon, Thyme, Tarragon Tincture
Pictured above is the Farmer’s Market, which my friend ordered and let me try. I will admit, this cocktail isn’t my favorite, I think it actually tastes a bit like zesty Italian seasoning, but it is very flavorful and I think for the right person it would be a hit.
Other Cocktails Of Note:
These are other cocktails that my friends ordered and really liked, but I was having too much fun to remember to take photos of their cocktails, so I took these from the Forge & Foundry Instagram
About Damn Time: Gin, Prickly Pear, Lime, honey, agave, orange bitters
I was told it was fruity and refreshing.
El Rio Picante: Forge & Foundry Rum, Chipotle, Pineapple, Lime, Agave, Smoked Salt, and Habanero Tincture
Unfortunately, I don’t have the ingredient list, but Fiance was able to Nancy Drew a bit to figure out the ingredients 🤣. It was a perfect combo of sweet and spicy.
