Espresso martini

Cazadores Reposado Tequila, Amaro Nonino, Disaronno Amaretto, Mr. Black Coffee, espresso, oat orgeat, sea salt, and orange essence | *not from a hotel, just delicious – $16

Corpse Reviver no. 2

Gin Mare, Cointreau, Bordiga Bianco, lemon, and an Absinthe rinse | American Bar, Savoy Hotel in London, England – $15

*If you were ordering in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, asking for a Corpse Reviver was the equivalent to saying you'd spent the previous evening out on the town. It was intended to be a "hair of the dog" style remedy.

Sidecar

Hennessy Cognac, Cointreau, lemon, and simple | Hemingway Bar, The Ritz in Paris, France – $15

*Crafted during the First World War by an American captain. He named the drink after a motorcycle sidecar in which he was chauffeured to and from the bar.

Queens Park Swizzle

Ron del Barrilito Rum, Santa Tesera Rum, lime, mint, demerara, and Angostura Bitters | Long Bar, Queen’s Park Hotel in Port of Spain, Trinidad – $15

*A tall, boozy rum drink that Trader Vic famously touted in 1946 to be “the most delightful form of anesthesia given out today."

Tequila Sunrise

Herradura Blanco Tequila, Union Mezcal, crème de cassis, house made ancho-spiced grenadine, habanero, lime, and club soda | Wright Bar, Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix, Arizona – $16

*The Tequila Sunrise at its worst - processed juices, artificial grenadine, and cheap tequila - is a real headache, literally. The original recipe included crème de cassis, not orange juice. Our version blends both old and new but with some added smoke and spice.

Sazerac

Jack Daniel’s Bonded Rye, Peychaud’s Bitters, and Herbsaint | Grunewald Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana – $16

*By 1850, the sazerac was the first "branded" cocktail. The story goes that back in 1838, Creole apothecary Antoine Peychaud invented the Sazerac in his shop. Later, American Rye replaced cognac. The final variation is attributed to the Grunewald Hotel (now the Roosevelt New Orleans). They've been serving them to everyone who's anyone since 1938.

Hotel Nacional

Havana Club Añejo Blanco Rum, Bacardi 8 Rum, Giffard Crème de Pêche, pineapple, and lime | Hotel Nacional de Cuba in Havana, Cuba – $16

*Loosely modeled on the daiquiri, but the pineapple juice provides a sweet counterpart to the citrus, and the touch of Giffard Crème de Pêche gives it a bit of mystery. In the 1930s, the Hotel Nacional de Cuba was one of the world’s grandest and this cocktail was crafted to help to reinforce Havana’s reputation as a comfortable cocktail destination for Prohibition-weary Americans.

CHURCHILL MANHATTAN

Johnnie Walker Scotch, Macchia Vermouth Rossa Al Mirto, caramelized orange & mango cordial, lime, *egg white, and hint of amontillado sherry | American Bar, Savoy Hotel in London, England – $17

*This bright, orange-forward scotch cocktail is perfect for those we don’t ordinarily enjoy scotch. Winston Churchill’s taste for scotch was well-known at the Savoy Hotel – so much so that legendary barman Joe Gilmore created this cocktail in the late 1930’s in honor of the statesman.

Moonwalk

Grand Marnier, grapefruit, rose water, and sparkling rosé | American Bar, Savoy Hotel in London, England – $15

*This citrusy, sweet champagne cocktail was created to commemorate the Apollo 11 moon landing and was the first thing astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin sipped upon returning to earth.

Vieux Carre

Elijah Craig Rye, Hine VSOP, Cocchi Torino, and Dom Benedictine | Carousel Bar, Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans, Louisiana – $15

*Pronounced vyur·kaa·ray, this means ‘Old Square’ or ‘Old Quarter’ in French which was the original name for New Orleans’ French Quarter. This cocktail tributes the many influences (American, French, Italian, and Caribbean) that had shaped the oldest section of New Orleans.
