Crossed Signals Craft Cocktail

July 18, 2025

If you’re looking to impress your friends with a unique and refreshing cocktail, look no further than our Crossed Signals. This month, we’re showcasing a refreshing cocktail that blends the rich flavors of rye whiskey and vibrant citrus.

This cocktail marries the boldness of rye whiskey with the bright, zesty notes of fresh lemon and grapefruit. A hint of floral complexity from Pamplemousse Rose liqueur adds depth, while the touch of maple syrup rounds out the flavors with a subtle sweetness.

For a stunning presentation, serve in a chilled coupe glass, and garnish with an elegant twist of grapefruit zest, adding both aroma and visual appeal.

Waking Dragon Craft Cocktail

March 15, 2024

This February we celebrate Lunar New Year and the Year of the Dragon. Our bartender’s special for the month, Walking Dragon, is a play on the classic craft cocktail, the Last Word.

At first sip, the Suntory ‘Toki’ Japanese whisky envelops the palate with notes of oak and a delicate sweetness. While the Green Chartreuse adds an herbal complexity, the grapefruit and lime introduce a burst of tangy citrus, lending a vibrant and refreshing element to the drink. For a “grand finale" of sorts, and to elevate this cocktail further, a drizzle of wasabi oil is carefully rested on the surface. This captivating blend of flavors creates a memorable drinking experience, enticing those seeking a unique and adventurous libation.
