Date Night Ideas With Gentleman Jack

Going out for dinner is a nice gesture, but if you really want to show someone you care, say it with a date night in. That way, you can curate the food, music and atmosphere, and you can both enjoy a next-level Gentleman Jack cocktail without having to worry about the crowds. Now that the question of which drink to serve is solved, you can focus on a menu that's sure to impress but doesn't require you to spend all day in the kitchen preparing. We're talking dishes like a swordfish that cooks like steak for a lighter take on the romantic classic and no-fail chocolate pots de crème that makes enough leftovers they solve the question of what's for breakfast tomorrow.

For the ultimate extra step, float red wine over a unique cocktail with hints of vanilla and citrus bitters. Gentleman Jack's smooth finish works perfectly with a well-aged red wine for a combination that'll leave a lasting impression.

How to Make It: Combine 2 ounces of Gentleman Jack, 1 ounce of lemon juice, ½ ounce of vanilla syrup and 2 dashes of orange bitters in a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice and shake for 5 seconds. Double-strain the mixture into a rocks glass filled with ice. Pour ½ ounce of red wine over the drink using the back of a bar spoon, then serve.

Staying at home means you have full control over creating the perfect evening that your special someone deserves. A simple table setting with touches of elegance is the way to go for a date night that feels elevated.
