Cocktail

This Aperol Margarita is a great union of two amazing places: Italy and Mexico.

This is a refreshing, summery spin on a margarita.

A spicy riff on the classic Margarita cocktail.

Cognac gets stirred with tangy Champagne vinegar, sweet maple syrup, and aromatic vanilla extract for a cocktail that’s silky and potent, perfect for serving after a meal.

Potent, peppery whiskey mingles with a crisp touch of sherry vinegar, but the key to the perfect mix is a softening spoonful of maple syrup. The drink comes together silky and rich, with a lingering maple flavor that’s perfect for a cool evening.

Thyme goes beautifully with sweet and citrus flavors, making it perfect for cocktails. This recipe multiplies easily for large groups.

For most drinkers of a certain age, Jägermeister is the unofficial source of many bad decisions. But here it acts as the base of a bone-warming drink that combines the herbal notes of the liqueur with apple brandy for a decidedly adult way to fortify oneself after a day out in the cold.

In our cold-weather version of the mojito we sub out white rum for rich, brooding blackstrap and mint for muddled rosemary.

Inspired by a Sazerac, here's a super boozy, herbal-Scotchy drink that'll relax your shoulders, loosen your tongue, and clear your mind—basically, everything you need a stiff drink to do.

This classic cocktail, made with gin, lemon, maraschino, and violette, dates back to 1916. 

We love a fun twist on a classic cocktail—this Negroni riff is mellowed by an extra splash of gin and punched up with herbaceous Punt e Mes in place of the standard sweet vermouth.

This cocktail is a smoky variation on the Manhattan, created by bartender Eryn Reece during her tenure at Death & Co.

This Manhattan variation from Audrey Saunders of Pegu Club in NYC starts with rye and vermouth, then adds Cynar amaro to appealing effect.
