It's a cynical marketing triumph, but also a fun alternative to other spirits.
One of the side effects of modern capitalism is the incessant drive for growth. Every business has to get bigger every year or it’s a disaster. You see this echoed in the consumer markets—there always has to be a new product, a new category, a new way to encourage folks to spend their money. So...
Coffee. Chocolate. Coke. This customizable pick-me-up has everything you desire.
Summer afternoons are tough, especially when you’ve hit that post-lunch slump—you still have work to do, but your brain has checked out for the day. The next time that happens, maybe mix up an iced mocha cola, which I find to be a perfectly caffeinated. easily customizable combination of coffee,...
It’s a vibrant, heady, sweet and fragrant beverage, best sipped while ice cold at the end of a meal.
When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade, but that only takes care of the fruit’s flesh. Lemonade does nothing to mitigate a barrage of lemon peels, but the solution is once again a beverage: Limoncello.
Limoncello—or limoncino if you’re from the north of...
In the words of my favorite bartender: Let's make drinks, not judgements.
My relationship with martinis can be traced back to the bar at Bern’s Steakhouse in Tampa, an iconic establishment that’s decorated like a French bordello. Desperate to be perceived as refined, I ordered a dirty martini with my shrimp cocktail and ribeye. Marco—the platonic ideal of an old-school...
It's a good rhyme, but it doesn't actually mean anything.
There is a lot of mythology baked into drinking culture. You might believe, for instance, that once you pee during a night out, you’re doomed to make nonstop trips back to the bathroom because you “broke the seal,” but that’s not true. You might also believe that the “hair of the dog” will help...
I swear this drink is the only thing that has its shit together.
You move to a new city, in a new country. You’ve found an apartment that is just the right price, in just the right neighborhood, and after pulling out your bestest, most adultest, and politest set of manners, you endear yourself adequately to the building manager. The place is yours. Your first year there, you...
From salty flakes of Parmesan to subtle aromatics of blue cheese, raise your glass to finding more ways to consume cheese.
An unusual cocktail ingredient is trending, and it’s not my amarena cherry syrup. (Yet.) It’s cheese. You already love it when paired with a drink, so why not include it directly in your libation? There’s a place in our coupe glasses for both soft...
It’s like a bubbly, skinny margarita, but more refreshing. (And there's no dressing in it.)
A lot of seemingly perfect arrangements are reinvigorated with a little swapping.
A classic, textbook margarita is a perfect summer drink. It’s tart and boozy and just sweet enough—a true ride or die cocktail if there ever was one. But I cannot help but futz with things, even...
It’s like a bubbly, skinny margarita, but more refreshing. (And there's no dressing in it.)
Before we hit legal drinking age, my best friend and I usually hung out with her older boyfriend and his older friends, mostly because they would share their (terrible) booze. I had yet to learn anything about cocktails, and we weren’t exactly in the position to be choosy, so we drank a...
The way you grind coffee influences the taste in a big way, so make sure you do it right.
Every cup of coffee, good or bad, starts with a bean being ground. And whether it was done by an industrial machine before being packaged and shipped to a store, or you did it yourself with a hand-grinder before brewing up a batch of French press, grinding is an important step in your journey to a...
