While everyone else is busy getting their yoga certification or cross-stitching their way through quarantine, we've been making heart-eyes at our home bar. There's no better time to pick up a new hobby, and if you ask us, creating beautiful cocktails is top of the list. 

If you're looking to really mix things up, Hounds Black Vodka – a smooth, Canadian spirit with a striking appearance – is the perfect place to start. Made in Niagara, Ontario, Hounds gets its distinctive colour from humic and fulvic acids, which turn the usually clear spirit a moody pitch black that's great for crafting show-stopping cocktails.

To bring out those vanilla and fruit notes, we're sharing a Hounds Black Quarantini recipe, which uses lemon, sugar and maraschino cherries to offset the sultry sipper. 

Hounds Vodka is available for purchase at the LCBO ($35.95) and at HoundsVodka.com ($31.86).
