Botanical Rum Cocktail Crafted with Intention
Getting Old Fashioned reimagines a timeless cocktail through the lens of plants and craft. Every element begins in our fields, grown and harvested by hand, and transformed into extracts that capture their true character.
This kit pairs the bright, cooling lift of Triple Mint with the grounding notes of Sage and Celery Bitters. Together, they bring a layered, herbal complexity to rum that feels balanced, restorative, and quietly bold.
Combined with your favorite rum, these botanicals create an elegant twist on the Old Fashioned; familiar in structure, yet alive with garden energy. The result is a drink that’s grounding, aromatic, and quietly invigorating.
Linda (MSN, RN) and Eric started Bluestem Botanicals in 2008 with a mission to connect people to plants for food, for medicine and for a more resilient collective future.
All of their products are hand grown, harvested, and manufactured on their small farm in Pennsylvania.
Their mission and their passion for their herbs comes through in every bottle, tincture, and bag they produce.

Unique gift!
This organic cocktail set would make a unique and thoughtful gift, especially for the amateur bartender in your life! I especially like the ginger syrup! It was boxed very nicely — ready for gifting — and I think the price is reasonable for the quality of what you get. I have no complaints and I feel confident recommending this to others based upon my own personal opinions, experience, tastes, and preferences. Five stars!

Customer Review
Fun and tasty kit!
This cocktail kit was a lot of fun! We tried the botanical lavender mist flavor and it was very good. It comes with the simple syrup, hydrosol, tincture, and a recipe card. You provide a few ingredients like the alcohol and lemon. The recipe card makes it easy to mix the drink. The kit was a fun, low stress experience to make a fancy drink. It would make a great date night activity and my spouse on I shared laughs and we whipped up the drink.I tried it both with alcohol and as a mocktail. It's advertised that it could be made as a mocktail, but I did not see instructions. Dropping the alcohol, you mostly drinking the simple syrup and lemon juice so I played with swapping the alcohol with club soda, lemon-lime soda, and even non-alcoholic gin I had on hand.The lavender simple syrup is very tasty and I've found it also works well in matcha lattes. It is recommended to refrigerate the syrup after opening.

Good for a cocktail party
The mix is interesting on first try. Having them as a set allows for some tweaking to preference. I find the syrup too sweet to my taste but can imagine someone liking it.It's expensive but also A LOT of mixer. The set could be very handy at a cocktail party than at a home setting. I'll recommend it for some office or home party or a gift for an advantous drinker.
