Production & Heritage

Sugarlands Distilling Company operates in Gatlinburg at the doorstep of the Great Smoky Mountains, drawing on Appalachian distilling traditions to produce a wide range of moonshines, whiskeys, and cream liqueurs. For this Eggo collaboration, the distilling team developed three separate flavor profiles — a toasty, slightly yeasty waffle-forward note, a buttery maple syrup character, and a delicate but distinct bacon element — then fine-tuned the ratio of each until the final blend replicated the experience of a fully dressed Eggo waffle. The rum base provides a smooth, mild spirit backbone that lets those layered breakfast flavors take center stage without excessive alcohol heat.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Breakfast syrup and fluffy waffles lead immediately, followed by butterscotch, cinnamon, and a dusting of nutmeg. A faint toasty warmth sits underneath, reminiscent of fresh-from-the-toaster Eggo waffles.

Taste: The entry is decidedly sweet and creamy, with rich maple syrup coating the palate right away. At the mid-palate, buttery waffle and caramel notes emerge, layered with warm baking spice. A subtle smoky, savory thread — the bacon element — weaves through the sweetness toward the peak, adding an unexpected dimension that keeps the profile from becoming one-note.

Finish: Medium in length with a velvety, coating texture that lingers on the tongue. Maple sweetness and a whisper of smoky warmth are the last flavors to fade.

How to Drink Brunch in a Jar

Served chilled or over ice, Brunch in a Jar delivers its full waffle-and-syrup character with minimal effort — simply shake the bottle and pour. It also works as a dessert-cocktail ingredient in several applications: try it in an Espresso Martini in place of a traditional coffee liqueur for a sweet, brunch-inspired twist; mix it into a White Russian to swap out Irish cream and add maple depth; or blend it into a Boozy Milkshake with vanilla ice cream for an indulgent after-dinner treat.

Best For

• Hosting a weekend brunch party with creative cocktails
• Gifting to someone who loves nostalgic breakfast flavors
• Adding to dessert recipes like French toast bread pudding or pancake batter
• After-dinner sipping as a sweet, low-proof nightcap

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Brunch in a Jar taste like? It tastes like a freshly toasted, buttered Eggo waffle drizzled with maple syrup, carried by an extremely creamy, sweet base with subtle hints of caramel, warm spice, and a touch of smoky bacon in the background.

How does Brunch in a Jar compare to Baileys Irish Cream? Both are cream liqueurs with a thick, smooth texture, but Brunch in a Jar uses a rum base rather than Irish whiskey and leans into maple-waffle sweetness instead of chocolate and vanilla. Consumers who enjoy Baileys and have a taste for maple syrup tend to find this an easy transition, though it is notably sweeter overall.

Is Brunch in a Jar good for cocktails? Its low 20% ABV and pronounced sweetness make it an excellent mixer for dessert-style cocktails, milkshakes, and coffee drinks. It can replace standard cream liqueurs in most recipes while adding a distinctive breakfast-inspired flavor.

Where is Brunch in a Jar made? It is produced and bottled by Sugarlands Distilling Company in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, situated at the edge of the Great Smoky Mountains in the heart of Appalachia.

What foods pair well with Brunch in a Jar? Pair it with warm waffles or pancakes as a topping for an indulgent brunch; alongside vanilla bean ice cream or cheesecake for dessert; with pecan pie, where the maple and caramel notes complement the nutty filling; or drizzled over bread pudding for added richness.

What sizes does Brunch in a Jar come in? The standard size is 750ml, which is the most widely available format for this product.

Is Brunch in a Jar worth the price? It positions as an accessible, fun novelty liqueur within the cream category, priced comparably to other flavored sipping creams in the Sugarlands lineup. For fans of sweet, dessert-forward spirits or anyone drawn to the Eggo brand tie-in, it delivers a genuinely unique flavor experience that stands apart from conventional cream liqueurs.

Why Brunch in a Jar?

What separates this liqueur from the crowded flavored-cream market is the specificity of its engineering. Rather than a generic maple or waffle flavoring, the Sugarlands team built three independent flavor profiles — waffle, maple butter, and bacon — and blended them to recreate an actual plated breakfast. That level of intentional layering is unusual at this price point. For anyone looking for a conversation-starting bottle that genuinely delivers on its promise, Brunch in a Jar turns a familiar childhood flavor into a surprisingly well-executed adult indulgence.
