Rod Stewart & Son Liam Celebrate Father’s Day Behind The Bar Shaking Up Rockstar Martinis
Two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, Rod Stewart and his (newlywed) son Liam joined forces behind the bar at his Essex country estate to kick-off their Father’s Day celebration, ahead of the June 16 holiday. Equipped with whisky, passion fruit liqueur, vanilla syrup, lime juice, Champagne, a shaker and martini glasses, the duo hilariously demonstrate how to make a Rockstar Martini, in time for everyone to grab the ingredients and celebrate Father’s Day with a cocktail.
In a video posted to Rod’s Instagram (@sirrodstewart), Liam plays bartender, taking his dad through the steps to make a Rockstar Martini, a twist on the popular Pornstar Martini, using Rod’s whisky Wolfie’s in place of vodka.
The 29-year-old, who married Nicole Artukovich on Friday in Croatia, is Rod’s son with ex-wife Rachel Hunter. He is also a new father, who celebrated the birth of his son, Louis, with now-wife Nicole in 2023.
“Family is incredibly precious, and I’m grateful that I get to spend as much time as I do with my kids between travel and touring,” said Rod. “I try to bring us all together as much as I can. I’ve always loved Father’s Day – it’s a bit of an excuse to get everyone together, isn’t it? I always raise a toast to my dad Robert too, although this year we’ll be celebrating with a Wolfie’s Rockstar Martini, which will go down a treat with the rest of the family.”
Wolfie’s is available in more than 20 countries. In the US, it’s just launched throughout California, Nevada and Florida and is available for shipping to all states excluding Alaska, Arkansas, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, South Dakota, Tennessee & Utah via online orders at wolfieswhisky.com.
Sunday 16 June is a double celebration for Rod this year, as it also marks his wedding anniversary with wife Penny Lancaster. Stewart, in the midst of a sold-out European tour, will play the QE Arena in Leipzig on Friday 14 June, and the Mercedes Benz arena in Berlin on Saturday 15 June before flying back to England to celebrate his anniversary with Penny and mark Father’s Day with his family.

The Two-Time Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Will Touchdown in The Sunshine State For Concerts In Hollywood Feb. 14-15 and Tampa Feb. 16
Catch Rod Stewart Toasting Wolfie’s on The Kelly Clarkson Show &
Access Hollywood
Sir Rod Stewart is celebrating the launch of Wolfie’s Blended Scotch Whisky in Florida, California and Nevada this February. The rock legend touched down in New York with an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Feb. 8, with Rod, Kelly and her house band toasting the whisky’s U.S. expansion. Rod will next stop in Florida for three shows on Feb. 13 and 14 at the Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, FL and Feb. 16 at the Seminole Hard Rock Event Center in Tampa, FL. Fans can tune-in on 2/22 when he takes Access Hollywood to his favorite U.S. pub, The Long Acre, for a final toast before heading back to the UK to celebrate the launch of his upcoming album, Swing Fever, out Feb. 23
Designed to reflect Rod’s rock ‘n’ roll heritage with subtle nods to Americana, Wolfie’s is now available in 73 Total Wine & More stores throughout Florida and California and will be served in step with his concerts at both Seminole Hard Rock properties in Florida. It’s also available at Florida independent retailers Leuken’s Wine & Spirits and ABC Fine Wine & Spirits in the state. In Nevada, Wolfie’s will be rolling-out distribution at Lee’s Discount Liquor, Nevada’s largest independent retailer and Caesars Palace, where Rod will conclude his record-breaking 13-year residency on it 200th concert show this July and August.
“Florida, California and Las Vegas have been second homes to me for many years,”Rod Stewart remarked. “I look forward to sharing a toast of Wolfie’s with my fans there soon.”
Duncan Frew, Rod’s co-founder in Wolfie’s, said:
“Expanding into these states is a huge milestone for Wolfie’s and one we’re both very excited about and taking very seriously. We’ve had a phenomenal seven months since launching in summer last year and have an ambitious 2024 ahead of us.”
Distilled on the banks of Loch Lomond by an expert team with decades of whisky-making know-how, Wolfie’s Blended Scotch Whisky is a 40% ABV blended Scotch which perfectly marries grain whisky and malt whiskies, resulting in a lightly peated, smooth final blend. Wonderfully balanced with flavors of warming cinnamon, fresh vanilla, and baked apple, it has delicate notes of sweet peat and pears in syrup before finishing with candied citrus peels and a gentle oak spice.
Referencing the opening track from Rod’s 1991 album Vagabond Heart, the lyrics ‘Rhythm of My Heart’ are emblazoned on the base of the bottle. Rod’s recording of the song was a nod to his own Scottish heritage having adapted the melody from the traditional folk song, Loch Lomond.
Wolfie’s is available for shipping to all states excluding Alaska, Arkansas, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, South Dakota, Tennesse & Utah via online orders via wolfieswhisky.com.
