COCKTAILS, PUNCHES AND SAVORY SMALL PLATES

CLASSIC COCKTAILS

MINT JULEP 12

August suns are shining, the breath of the south wind is upon you. It is fragrant, cold and sweet---it is seductive. No maiden's kiss as tender or more refreshing --- No maiden’s touch could be more passionate. Sip it and dream, it is a dream itself. No other land can give so sweet a solace for your cares; no other liquor soothes you so in melancholy days. Sip it and say there is no solace for the soul, no tonic for the body like Old Bourbon whiskey. Michters Kentucky Bourbon & fresh Beach Plum Mint & simple syrup served over crushed ice.

SAZERAC 12

The Sazerac was created at some point in the mid-nineteenth century at the Sazerac Coffee House in New Orleans, USA. The owner of this establishment, John B. Schiller, was the local agent for Sazerac-du-Forge et Fils, a Cognac which formed the basis of the Sazerac cocktail along with sugar and Peychaud’s, the bitters synonymous with New Orleans. Rittenhouse 100 Rye Whiskey, Peychaud bitters, Raw cane sugar and an Pernod Absinthe rinse.

SINGAPORE GIN SLING 12

It’s fairly well documented and agreed on that the Singapore Sling was created by Ngiam Tong Boon at the Long Bar of the Raffles Hotel in Singapore, at some point between 1900 and 1915. It may have originally been called the Straits Sling, until the Singapore moniker caught on at some point during the 1920s or 1930s. Tanqueray Gin, Cherry Heering, Benedictine, Pineapple Juice, Cointreau & Angostura bitters.

SATAN'S WHISKERS 12

The Satan’s Whiskers first shows up in the Savoy Cocktail Book circa 1930, and it appears in two variations: straight, when mixed with Grand Marnier, and curled, when mixed with orange curaçao. Since both versions appear together there is no "official" declaration of which drink is the original or correct one, so the recipe depends upon good old-fashioned personal preference. Bluecoat Gin, Noilly Prat dry vermouth & sweet vermouth, orange curacao and orange juice with Regans Orange bitters.

THE ALGONQUIN 12

Named after the New York Hotel, which became known for the famed Algonquin Round Table and the Vicious Circle, a group of writers and thinkers from the 1920’s, such as Harpo Marx and Dorothy Parker. Templeton Rye, Noilly Prat Dry vermouth and fresh pineapple.

PIMMS CUP 10

Pimm's Cup, a classic cocktail invented in England in 1840 by James Pimm as a health tonic. Originally made in his London based Oyster Bar, The Pimm’s Cup has become the quintessential summer drink. Pimms No.1, fresh Beach Plum Farm mint, strawberries & cucumber topped with Ginger ale and Sprite.

THE HEMINGWAY DAIQUIRI 12

Or so the story goes. The novelist had stopped into Havana’s El Floridita bar, not far from the hotel where he lived during much of the 1930s. On his way out, he noticed the bartender setting up Daiquiris. Never one to walk past a drink, Hemingway took a sip. Not bad, he said, but he preferred them with no sugar and double the rum. The bartender made one as specified, and then named the drink after him. Flor de Cana 4yr Rum, Maraschino liqueur, Fresh Grapefruit juice, Sirop de Ron.
