The five spice old fashioned -- Elijah Craig 12 yr, Oolong spice syrup, plum bitters -- is delicious, and sweeter and milder than your everyday neighborhood old fashion.
The sloe gin fizz -- Plymouth sloe gin, Plymouth gin, egg white, lemon, lime, soda -- tastes like an estranged cousin of the egg cream.
The raw bar is open during odd hours, which is nice. For cocktails, I like the De La Sol: lime, honey, hot sauce, tequila and soda. Kinda strange there's no Sol beer in there, no?
Huge list of delicious cocktails, but if you don't see what you want (like something from an older menu), just ask; they'll make anything.
Whiskey lovers should try the Delancy: Glenlivet 12, maple syrup, amaretto and Bitterman's orange bitters.
The cure-all is amazing: Breukelen gin, green chartreuse, egg white, lime and chamomile syrup.
The rotary evaporator is reminiscent of a science lab. Ask to try the liquid horseradish that it makes.
The Bowery Fix is dangerously smooth. The chili oil is more of a garnish than anything.
A standout cocktail is the Great Jones, a blend of Famous Grouse Scotch, Fee's Black Walnut Bitters and maple syrup served neat. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
It's official - housemade artisanal sodas are having a moment. Try one of our favorites here: cucumber mint, which you can also get as a fizzy wine cooler mixed with Grüner Veltliner ($8). อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Order the Freeman's Cocktail. Made with rye, pomegranate molasses & bitters (among others), it's completely delicious.
Try the Pancho & Lefty - Tequila with spicy honey, fresh squeezed lime juice, and orange bitters!
Enjoy the Long Meadow Ranch, EJ CHURCH Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve. Delicious, and only 150cs made! The best!
The Fools Gold (Powers Gold whiskey, Canton ginger liqueur fresh, fresh ginger syrup, honey, lemon) is refreshing. And I love how the menu tells you what type of glass the drinks come in.
The Honolulu's Mule: ginger, raspberry, mint, lime, raspberry liqueur, cinnamon simple, Sailor Jerry and ginger beer.
Instead of peanuts or party mix, they put out bowls of radishes at the bar. Oh, and the spicy watermelon habanero margarita is an @$$-kicker.
Fellow hipsters, beware: the Frozen Zombie is one of the booziest cocktails I've ever enjoyed. Snag a table in the backyard and sip slowly.
Interesting: sparkling tomatina sangria (cava, tomato water, gin, black pepper). Tomato water is exactly what the name suggests: water extracted from squeezing tomatoes, then filtered through cloth.
The Summer Smash is more smash than summer: Mitchers rye, Aperol, with muddled mint & lemon
The Spicy Cucumber Margarita has twice as many ingredients as are listed on the menu (love the picketed jalapeño) and is the best cocktail on the menu.
Hit this casually upscale Thai spot sat/sun for 2 weekend-only "pearl cocktails": The Shinju Pearl (glass of champagne w/ pearls of orange liqueur) and a similar version of their pomegranate martini. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
If you're drinking, skip the wines and go for an "our root" -- a homemade root beer and ginger drink served in a frosty mug. Like a beer but not as sadly filling.
If you like a smoky Manhattan, try the Hog Wild: bacon-infused bourbon, maraschino, sweet vermouth, bitters
There is no better scotch cocktail than the Philadelphia Story, which is mixed with amaro averna, st. germain, grapefruit, and bitters. It's smoky, spicy, with a strong hint of citrus.
If you're feeling really adventurous, the Gogol is very different: horseradish vodka and a pickled quail egg.
Standout drinks are the unusual Honey-Nut Old Fashioned and the Hudson Breeze Fizz, a gin and brandy drink balanced with baked apple foam. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Go off-menu with The Ragtime: Rye, two Amari, peychaud's, grapefruit slice.
The Kota Ternate is genius. The ingredients imply "Caribbean, umbrella-style", but it's not sweet. Instead, balanced and delicious.
As a native Russian, I give you my word that Russian Standard vodka is the best. If you like cucumbers and lime juice, get the Charmaine Star. You're welcome.
The McKenzie Manhattan, which is dangerously smooth, is named after my dog because his breath smells like brandied cherries.
If you're here for drinks, Storny Weather. The whiskey / strawberry thing sounds exotic but it's super girly.
The Tinto de Verando --with red wine and Mexican coke--is an excellent variation on Sangria.
Go to Little Branch and order the Sazerac. Then order another. Be wary of the third.
If you have trouble deciding what to order, let them decide for you. Ask for the Bartender's Choice and tell them what flavors/liquors you like.
Two nice tequila-based cocktails, the Mexican Firing Squad and the Old Palamino. The former is spicier than the latter.
When it's is in season, the Spring Negroni is server with a lavender flower. When it's not, it's served with a lavender oil-infused ice ball.
The Old Fashioned is described as "rusty" because it has Drambuie in it, making it similar to a Rusty Nail.
