Adore Holiday 2019

Holiday

A s the year winds down, the holiday season is just ramping up. You know the drill: parties on parties, gifts galore, and oh so many sweets! Instead of falling back on your typical seasonal beverages (we're looking at you eggnog), we recommend switching things up with a handcrafted cocktail created by some of the city's very best in the business. Impress your company with a new take on Milk Punch and forget about your extended family with the help of a Sazerac infused with duck fat. 'Tis the season, right?
