Spring is in the air, which means it's time to move away
from the heavier cocktails that got us through the winter and get excited about
light, bright, cool concoctions. Here are a few spring sippers to clink and
drink right now in NYC:
·
Coconut Crema at Colonia Verde :
Tequila, lime and coconut cream lend this frothy concoction--somewhere between
cocktail and dessert--a certain I'm in the tropics.
·
Gentleman Farmer at Narcissa : Even
the bartender, Matt Hunter, loves vegetables at John Fraser's restaurant in The
Standard East Village. He sneaks snap peas and tarragon into the vodka.
·
Rhubarb Blush at Whiskey Soda
Lounge : All the flavors of spring, none of the sweetness. Now is the
perfect time to indulge in aperol spiked with rhubarb bitters at Red Hook's
Thai drinking den.
·
Garden Variety Margarita at The
Wayland: We promise the kale juice adds body and depth to this bright and
pleasingly dry margarita, not drinkable salad-ness. Oh, and we dig the smoky
salt rim.
