Watch Paula on KEYE's "We Are Austin"
In case you missed the airing in October, we've got the segment featuring Paula on KEYE-TV's "We Are Austin" show on our website. Check it out. And, yes, it's okay to laugh at us on-camera amateurs. Thanks again to Cedar Door for the staging. |
| Events | Don't forget the Paula's at all your holiday and New Year's events! A bottle of Paula's is the perfect hostess gift. For a stocking stuffer, look for Quintessential Chocolates' delicious dark chocolates filled with Paula's Texas Orange at a Twin Liquors store near you.

Other Holiday drink ideas
- Make a Holiday Cosmo with Paula's Texas Orange, Texas vodka, a splash of cranberry juice and club soda. Swizzle with a candy cane.
- Decadent delight is Paula's Texas Orange and 360 Double Chocolate Vodka. Rim the glass with salt for a pleasant surprise.
- A cozy drink for a cold day: brew a cup of tea with a cinnamon stick; add 1½ oz. PTO, 1 oz. apple juice, and a few drops of lemon juice. Serve warm or over ice.

Drink Local night moves on up
In its fifth year, Drink Local night, part of Edible Austin's Eat Drink Local Week, was better then ever. Fourteen locally based spirits producers sampled their wares in the grand ballroom of the AT&T Center. Along side for the first time, the Official Drink of Austin contest pitted five local drink slingers in the battle for the year-long city-sanctioned title. Houston Eaves of Contigo won over the judges with his Smokin' Gypsy featuring Balcones Brimstone and Tito's Vodka, using dry ice for a literal smokin' effect. We were thrilled that Justin Chamberlain of Sagra came in second with The Pinetop, which included Paula's Texas Orange. And we were also not-so-secretly rooting for Jessica Sanders of Drink.Well, whose concoction included Paula's Texas Lemon. Kudos to David Alan, aka The Tipsy Texan, for putting together a great event, and thank you Edible Austin and the AT&T Center.

New cocktail conference in San Antonio
Mark your calendar for the brand new San Antonio cocktail conference January 26-29. With the maturation of the craft cocktail movement in Central Texas, it's only fitting that both local and national glitterati of the cocktail scene should converge for four days of seminars, tastings, and contests. And fun. Paula's Texas Spirits is proud to be a sponsor, and we invite you all to come out for all the events. See you there!
