As the new year begins, January marks a fresh start. It’s the perfect time to reset, recharge, and raise a glass to what’s ahead in 2026. Whether you’re easing back into a pre-holiday routine or embracing the slower pace of winter, it’s the perfect time to pop into RSVP and restock your fridge and bar cart.
From comforting classics to new creations worth celebrating, we’ve got just what you need to keep spirits bright all month long.
This month we’re showcasing a dark mild ale, a Cabernet Sauvignon from California, and a rich espresso liqueur.
January Beer, Wine, and Liquor of the Month
Our January Beer of the Month is Mast Landing’s Weatherproof, an English-Style Dark Mild Ale with a light mouthfeel that clocks in at 4%. Brewed with a complex grain bill of chocolate malt, naked oats, Maris Otter, and more, Weatherproof features aromas of caramel malts, toffee malts, and burnt ash, with floral hop notes. 16 oz 4-pack cans are available for $12.99.
Shannon Ridge High Elevation Cabernet Sauvignon is our January Wine of the Month. This California Cab features a deep crimson color with aromas of dark chocolate, plum, cranberry, and cassis. It boasts flavors of blackberry and spice, with a hint of tobacco, all balanced by toasted oak for a smooth finish. Pick up a bottle (or two!) for $11.99 each.
Our January Liquor of the Month is Atomic Black, a roaster-made espresso liqueur that actually tastes like coffee. It’s bold, smooth, and perfectly balanced for either sipping straight or crafting the ultimate espresso martini. Created by the team behind Atomic Coffee Roasters, it’s coffee-first, bartender-approved. 750ml bottles are available for $27.99.
Cocktail of the Month
This warm, comforting twist on the classic toddy is perfect for winter. The coffee liqueur brings depth, maple adds seasonal sweetness, and the citrus keeps it from feeling heavy. It’s an ideal après-dinner or après-snowfall cocktail.
