If you’re looking for a cocktail that balances tropical flavors with a rich espresso kick, look no further than the Standing Room. This drink is a refreshing escape, featuring rum and pineapple juice uplifted by hints of hazelnut and espresso, making it a standout choice for any occasion.
The cocktail combines light rum and sweet pineapple juice with a splash of lime, enriched by the chocolate notes of Crème de Cocoa, chilled espresso, and the nutty warmth of hazelnut syrup.
The visual appearance begins with the swizzling, which creates and blends the flavors together. The vibrant yellow of the pineapple juice mingles beautifully with the cream-colored house made hazelnut syrup. Topping it off, a rich float of espresso contrasts strikingly against the lighter hues, adding depth to the drink. Finally, the dehydrated orange garnish adds an elegant touch and a pop of color.
For some, dry January lasts a lot longer. Whether you’re 0.0% for good, the designated driver or just looking for a delicious drink without the bite, this month’s non-alcoholic Water Grill Bartender’s Special deserves a spot on everyone’s cocktail list.
The Free Spirited is a 0% ABV cocktail that’s a zero-proof play on the Aperol Spritz. Lyre’s non-alcoholic Italian Spritz takes the place of Aperol in this build, and the prosecco is swapped with tonic water. This refreshing drink is served long and charged with club soda.
