According to a press release, each recipe and food pairing is inspired by summer gatherings and compliments the vibrantly delicious Crown Royal Peach that is coupled with a touch of creamy vanilla and rich, signature blended whiskies.

Ghetto Gastro’s recipes have fresh peach and tangy flavors that can be served at events varying from a kickback to brunch.

“Come kickback with some Casanovas colder than Nova Scotia,” Ghetto Gastro told BOSSIP about their partnership. “Crown Royal and GG provide the vibe for all summer outside. Pour up responsibly!”
