Oregon's Unofficial-Official Cocktail: Hike, Fish & Go Camping Punch (Serves 4)


The Unofficial-Official Oregon Cocktail has now been chosen! The winner is (drumroll please).... Hike, Fish & Go Camping Punch by Cheryl Meloy of Portland. This is an excellent drink for any season, and will add some flavor to any gathering. You may also check out the other finalists' recipes on our blog.

Ingredients
-5 oz Pendleton Whisky
-4 oz (1/3 of 12 oz can) frozen lemonade
-4 oz (1/3 of 12 oz can) frozen limeade
-4 oz huckleberry syrup
-2 bottles Terminal Gravity IPA
-Mint sprigs for garnish

Mix together the first four ingredients in large pitcher. Slowly stir in both bottles of beer. Pour punch into a tall, ice-filled glass. Top with mint sprig and serve. To make huckleberry syrup: Heat to a slow boil 2 cups berries (fresh or frozen; you can substitute blueberries for huckleberries) with 1 cup sugar and 2 cups water. Slow boil for 20 -30 minutes, cool slightly and strain mixture through fine mesh sieve. Work the mash to get all the fluid through the sieve before discarding the skins. You may also cool syrup and store in airtight container in the refrigerator.

“This is an easy, fun loving punch. With a warm whisky, flavorful micro brew, and a handful of wild berries, it’s a real Eastern Oregon concoction. A new twist on the youthful Hop, Skip & Go Naked and classic Whisky sour, this recipe crosses the generational gap and quenches the thirst of all revelers seeking a taste of Eastern Oregon’s high country.”
