The lively Italian cocktail bar from the team behind Rose Temple is skipping right over spring and moving straight to summer cocktails with its current warm-weather-inspired offerings. Sip a corn daiquiri (Wray & Nephew Overproof Jamaican Rum, Nixta elote liqueur, caramelized pineapple, lime, Scrappy’s firewater bitters, tortilla salt, and a Juanita’s chip garnish) or the vibrant, refreshing “Whirlaway” (tequila, Aperol, Ancho Reyes Verde, strawberry, and lime).

contributor Meg van Huygen rhapsodizes about the new “Khlang” cocktail, named for the Khmer word for “strength”: “To make a Khlang, one begins with brie fat-washed rye and adds to it nocino, alongside Cocchi di Torino sweet vermouth and a housemade squash tincture. The alchemical result drinks a lot like a Manhattan, except much richer. The rye is James E. Pepper 1776, and it’s got some power behind it, bringing oak, honey, clove, and pineapple… before it’s imbued with cheese, that is. The finished drink evokes the caramel sauce on a British toffee pudding, with the walnut from the nocino and butter from the brie toning down the sharpness of its overall Manhattan-ness. It tastes so round!”
