Cocktails

  • Penicillin – Born at New York’s legendary Milk & Honey, sip this smoky-sweet blend of Scotch, honey, lemon, and ginger — a soothing modern remedy.
  • Paper Plane – A bittersweet blend of bourbon, Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and lemon is bold and delightfully balanced.
  • Como Spritz – Inspired by a summer in Italy, this refreshing creation combines Cynar Amaro, sweet passion fruit, and sparkling wine for a taste of la dolce vita.
