Derek's Saloon Shift Drink
Thanks to Derek McClusker, there is a delicious drink at Saloon in Davis Square- refreshing enough for dreams of warmer evenings but rich and spicy for winter with rosemary and ginger beer. Continuing further with this idea, check out the upcoming Escape Your Winter Woes Mezcal dinner, Thursday, February 28th. Now that's something to warm up to.
Green Thumb: Blanco Tequila, cucumber, lime, rosemary simple, ginger beer.
True to bartender form, Derek's personal shift drink is a bit more of a straight shooter and right up my alley. A Shlitz and shot of Riverboat Rye (Redemption Rye's younger brother). Cheers, and keep the great drinks flowing.
