A clear, amber-gold Old Fashioned served over a large ice cube, smooth and spirit-forward with a gentle sweetness and warming spice from bitters. Bright citrus oils from an orange twist and lemon twist lift the aroma, rich, and elegant.

A pale, misty green-gold Smoke & Mirrors served ice-cold, where fresh mint and bright lime hit first, then give way to layered smoke from scotch and peaty Laphroaig. A whisper of absinthe adds a clean anise lift, finishing cool, sharp, and intriguingly smoky. Garnished with a fragrant mint sprig.

A deep amber Manhattan served ice-cold, smooth and spirit-forward with a balanced blend of sweet and dry vermouth. Aromatic bitters add warm spice and complexity, finishing rich, crisp, and refined. Garnished with a cherry.

A crisp, pale-green Gimlet served ice-cold, bright with fresh lime and clean gin botanicals. Optionally spiked with jalapeño heat and a hint of habanero bitters, with ginger adding a snappy, aromatic kick. Tart, refreshing, and lightly fiery, garnished with a lime wedge.

A rich, mahogany-red Boulevardier served over a large ice cube, velvety and warming with bourbon depth balanced by bittersweet Campari and silky sweet vermouth. Smooth, slightly spicy, and elegantly bitter on the finish, garnished with a cherry.
