Refreshments on the river are a staple of any good fly fishing trip. Nothing hits the spot like a cold or warm beverage to keep the vibes riding high or get you out of the dumps after you lost your fish of the year. For this little video mini-series, we partnered with Owen Locke of Locke + Co Distilling. A little while back, we hit the river with Owen and he shared three of his favorite on-the-river recipes to keep the party going (responsibly). Each one of these recipes requires 5 ingredients or less and could easily be stocked at the Kum & Go gas station at 5 am on your way to the river. Heck, you could even make this tonight.
