Classic Southern Cocktails to Pair with Your White Stones

Sometimes you want a more refined beverage to pair with your White Stone oysters. While a beer pairing is a classic and tasty summertime combo, there are several cocktails that also work well with oysters.

Take a look at these recipes, and give them a try at your next oyster roast, romantic dinner, or afternoon shuckin’ session.

Gin Fizz

The gin fizz is a perfect pairing for your White Stone oysters for a couple of reasons. The classic cocktail originated in New Orleans and uses a gin-centric recipe. The sharp, cutting flavor of gin pairs perfectly with the heavier umami flavors of oysters. It’s also a light, frothy drink that offers a different mouth feel than what you typically get from oysters.

Make it yourself:

  • 2 tbsp thawed orange juice concentrate
  • 4 tsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 oz gin
  • 1 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 large egg white
  • ⅓ cup chilled club soda.

Combine the sugar, concentrate, and juice into a cocktail shaker and mix. Then add the gin, cream, and egg white, fill the shake with ice and shake until frothy. This recipe will make 2 drinks.

 

Docks

Rum Runner

This super sweet, boozy cocktail is perfect for offsetting the saltiness found in oysters. It comes from 1950s tiki bars and can add a tropical vibe to any oyster slurpin’ session.

Make it yourself:

  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tbsp orange juice
  • 2 tbsp pineapple juice
  • 2 tbsp banana liquor
  • 2 tbsp light rum
  • 2 tbsp dark rum
  • 1 tbsp Chambord
  • 1 tbsp grenadine
  • Garnish: mixed fruit skewer

Pour all ingredients into an ice-filled cocktail shaker, shake vigorously and pour into an ice-filled hurricane glass.


Yellow Bird

This light and a relatively flavor-neutral cocktail is meant to be served with a meal and provides a refreshing palate cleanser between bites. It pairs well with oysters for the simple fact that it won’t overpower their flavors or blow out your palate.

Make it yourself:

  • Galliano liquor
  • Triple sec
  • Freshly squeezed lime juice

Combine all ingredients with ice, shake and pour.
