Garlic Spirit is built for people who take their savoury cocktails seriously. Made from our premium corn-based spirit, it brings roasted garlic, cracked pepper, and a warm savoury depth straight into the glass — the bold end of the Caesar spectrum, and a proper base for a dirty martini.
Naturally gluten-free and handcrafted right here in Alberta, it swaps in for vodka one-for-one in a Caesar, a Bloody Mary, or a michelada. Whether it’s brunch, a backyard barbecue, or a hockey night at home, this is the bottle that gives the drink some backbone.
Produced in small batches at Badlands Distillery, each bottle reflects our commitment to quality ingredients, careful craftsmanship, and memorable flavour. Made in Alberta using premium ingredients, it’s one of our boldest handcrafted spirits.
Rim a tall glass with celery salt and cracked pepper, then fill with ice. Add 2 oz Garlic Spirit, 4 oz Clamato, four dashes of hot sauce, and two dashes of Worcestershire. Stir and garnish with a lime wedge, a celery stalk, and a spicy bean.
The garlic gives it a savoury weight that a plain vodka Caesar never gets to. Skip the extra seasoning — it’s already in the bottle.
The first aroma is roasted garlic, followed by cracked black pepper and a subtle herbal note. On the palate, you’ll notice warm savoury depth balanced with clean acidity before finishing dry, sharp, and clean rather than heavy.
Unlike many savoury bottles built on a wheat base, our premium corn foundation is naturally smooth, letting the garlic and pepper come through without harsh alcohol notes. At 40% alc./vol., it sits comfortably between a chilled shot and a cocktail base.
This handcrafted bottle is made using premium corn-based spirit, making it naturally gluten-free while providing an exceptionally clean finish. Most flavoured spirits on the shelf are built on a wheat base — ours isn’t, which matters if you’re avoiding gluten.
Every bottle is produced in Alberta using small-batch methods that focus on consistency, quality, and flavour. Instead of a novelty hit, our garlic spirit offers a balanced savoury profile designed to hold up against Clamato, hot sauce, olive brine, and a loaded garnish.
The Caesar is the main event, but this spirit works well beyond it:
Its bold flavour makes it a favourite for brunch, backyard barbecues, tailgates, camping trips, and hockey nights at home.
Yes — that’s what it’s built for. Swap it in one-for-one and go easy on additional seasoning.
Dill Pickle is the classic briny Caesar — fresh dill and clean acidity. Garlic is the bolder, savoury end: roasted garlic and pepper, and it also makes a proper dirty martini.
Yes. It is made from premium corn-based spirit and is naturally gluten-free.
It’s bold but balanced — roasted rather than raw garlic, so it reads as savoury depth instead of a sharp bite, and it finishes clean.
Garlic Spirit is bottled at 40% alc./vol. in a 750 mL bottle.
Absolutely. It’s the bottle people don’t expect, which makes it a favourite for birthdays, stocking stuffers, and anyone who takes their Caesar seriously.
