Winter is Welcome
Quote from Article

I created “Winter is Welcome” for the first issue of Queen City Exclusive Magazine (Jan/Feb 2016). The Blurb from that article is below.

“When we told Bob Peters our first issue of 2016 was dedicated to Charlotte’s arts and culture his first reaction was to create an avant-garde cocktail that would push the limits. And push them he did. His “Winter is Welcome” recipe is nothing short of revolutionary. Using a porthole, a hand-held smoker, North Carolina pecan wood, and the perfect blend of local ingredients, Peters creates a concoction of the ethereal.”
