Jeffrey Dean Morgan, best known for his role as Negan on AMC's The Walking Dead and his wife Hilarie Burton Morgan, perhaps best known for her role as Peyton Sawyer on the television series One Tree Hill have decided to "make mischief" with MF Libations.

According to the Poughkeepsie Journal, the Morgan's teamed up with Poughkeepsie distillery The Vale Fox to create MF Libations. To get things started the group of entrepreneurs introduced a smoky rye whiskey and MF blackberry gin.

During the pandemic, The Vale Fox started making hand sanitizer. They reached out to the Mischief Farms in Rhinebeck, owned by Jeffrey and Hilarie, to see if there was a way to partner and get the sanitizer into the community. From that sincere beginning more ideas flowed into MF Libations. MF for Mischief Farms. Prices can be as much as $200 a bottle but also choices under $50. Shop HERE.
