Over the summer, my beau and I were in Connecticut for a birthday party. We brought the typical Bud Lights with us, but one of Albert’s friends showed up with something extra special: Not Your Father’s Root Beer. Basically, it’s alcoholic root beer. I know…right?! Though it’s 6% ABV, it doesn’t taste alcoholic at all…

There are two directions you can go in at Genuine Liquorette, the new subterranean bar below Genuine Superette. You can either get a drink via the Cha-Chunker, a contraption that cuts a hole into a canned beverage, into which a mini bottle of booze is inserted. Or you can simply grab a full size bottle…

Beth waited til we got to The Winslow to tell me it was a gin bar. She knows I’m all about the whiskey/bourbon. Ever heard that Toby Keith song “Whiskey Girl”? That was written about me. Seriously. Well, not actually, but it may as well have been. The Winslow has a fully stocked bar, but…

I couldn’t imagine two more different areas. South Street is super funky with murals covering every building and the most…

Karina’s latest hobby is mixolgy. She has begun experimenting with different cocktails at home and is pouring over literature to make herself the most accomplished amateur mixologist in Queens. It makes sense that the best way to learn which drinks you fancy and how to make them is by getting out there and trying them.…

Lovers of Today

$2 isn’t much, but can add up when you’re talking about pricey drinks. Most mixology-focused places charge $14 or $15 for a drink, but Lovers of Today sticks to $13. Still not cheap, but every little bit helps. Like many fancy drink places, this one is something of a speakeasy, located at 132 1/2 E.…
