Smoke and cherry are exactly the notes a good rye already plays with, which is why we keep this Gustus Vitae smoked vanilla cherry cane sugar behind the bar. Blended from cane sugar, vanilla bean, and tart cherry, it rims a glass beautifully and can stand in for the simple syrup in an Old Fashioned, deepening the drink without fighting the spirit. It comes in a 2.1 oz magnetized tin, is gluten-free, and uses no artificial colors or flavors.

Use it in cocktails or substitute it for some of the sugar in baking for a smoky, fruity twist.

As a flavored cocktail rimming sugar it dresses the edge of a whiskey sour in seconds, and used as an Old Fashioned cocktail sugar it folds smoke and dark cherry right into the build. The little magnetized tin also makes it a solid, gluten-free gift for the rye or whiskey lover in your life — see more ideas in our whiskey gifts for the home collection.
