Classic Supper Club Dessert Cocktails Reimagined for Today’s Ready-to-Drink Consumer
CLINTONVILLE, Wis. — Arty’s Premium Beverages is proud to announce the launch of two nostalgic additions to its popular Tavern Series lineup: Grasshopper and Brandy Alexander, a pair of indulgent ready-to-drink cocktails inspired by the iconic after-dinner drinks that have long been staples of Midwest supper club culture.
The new releases mark the debut of the Tavern Series Crème Collection, bringing rich, dessert-inspired flavors to consumers seeking premium cocktail experiences without the need for mixing or bartending.
The Grasshopper delivers a smooth blend of cool mint and rich chocolate, creating a creamy, dessert-like cocktail experience that pays tribute to one of America’s most beloved after-dinner drinks. The classic Grasshopper cocktail gained popularity throughout the Midwest and is especially associated with Wisconsin supper clubs and dessert traditions.
The Brandy Alexander features velvety chocolate notes balanced with smooth brandy character, resulting in a rich, sophisticated cocktail inspired by a classic that has delighted consumers for generations. Long celebrated as a luxurious dessert cocktail, the Brandy Alexander remains one of the most recognizable cream-based cocktails in American drinking culture.
“These cocktails represent everything the Tavern Series stands for—nostalgia, craftsmanship, and authentic Wisconsin hospitality,” said Timothy Pappin, President of Arty’s Premium Beverages. “The Grasshopper and Brandy Alexander are iconic supper club favorites that evoke memories of the supper club dining experience, celebrations, family gatherings, and special occasions. We’ve taken those classic flavors and transformed them into a convenient, premium ready-to-drink format.”
The launch aligns with renewed consumer interest in retro dessert cocktails and classic supper club-inspired drinking experiences. Industry observers have noted growing appreciation for nostalgic cream-based cocktails, including the Grasshopper and Brandy Alexander, as consumers seek comforting and indulgent flavor experiences.
