Bushwacker Spirits: Brings a sip of the beach to Wisconsin

Bushwacker Spirits is excited to splash down in Wisconsin soon. Bushwacker Spirits Bushwacker ready-to-drink cream cocktail will hit retail shelves in 750ml & 50ml formats across the state by the end of February 2024.

Describing how the traditional Bushwacker cocktail is created, co-founders Carter Echols and Michael Smith explain “It’s four or five different ingredients depending on which recipe you’re using, and you can’t always find them.” Smith says, “We were like, ‘This needs to be in a bottle.’ So, that spurred the idea.”

Bushwacker Rum Cream is an impassioned homage to the traditional Bushwacker cocktail, that’s solved the problem of hunting down hard to find ingredients and keeping them readily on hand by combining premium Caribbean Rum and real dairy cream with decadent flavors of chocolate, coffee, and coconut.

Bushwacker Spirits can’t wait to bring the Bushwacker way of life to Wisconsin and introduce Wisconsinites to their rich and creamy cocktail that is an experience sure to transform even the most mundane moments.
