Vodka is a diminutive of the Russian word voda. And voda means water. So basically the Russians are saying that vodka goes down like water, it’s clear like water, and may even be healthy like water? Sure! Some people say a jig a day keeps the doctor away!

The smell of autumn in a mug is all you need as the leaves begin to change, the days are getting shorter, and temperatures begin to drop. Fall is upon us, pumpkin spiced lattes are back, and everyone is just as basic as they always have been…dragging their significant others dressed in matching flannel to pick apples, pumpkins, and take sweet Instagram pics.
The new Aviary Cocktail Book is a perfect gift, table book, or go-to book when crafting cocktails for friends and loved ones. Grant Achatz and Nick Kokonas, who are the creators of Alinea in Chicago created this masterpiece alongside artists Allen and Sarah Hemberger from California.
Let’s taco ‘bout it!
The NJ Taco Fest will bring you the best tacos sourced locally, a Margarita mix-down, a Chihuahua costume contest, beer and more!
To select the restaurant with the Tri-State area’s #1 taco there will be a panel of Media Personalities, Food Writers, Celebrity Chefs, and YOU to determine who will take home the gold in five different categories. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will be awarded for the following taco categories: beef taco, chicken taco, pork taco, seafood taco, and best veggie taco. There will also be a spicy taco of hell challenge so you can compete and take home the gold as well!
The US Open is in full swing and we invite you to make and partake in the tournament’s official cocktail with us: the Grey Goose Honey Deuce.
It’s a little bit sweet, a little bit crisp, and 100 perfect refreshing, this sporty libation is comprised of Grey Goose vodka, lemonade, and raspberry liqueur, accented with the ultimate garnish – tennis-inspired honeydew melon balls.
It’s that time of year – National Whiskey Sour Day! So, let us celebrate with a classic recipe that has been tampered with so many times over the years that no one actually knows what the true cocktail even contains!
Happy Tequila Day!
One tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor! Enjoy this national holiday with some refreshing tequila cocktails concocted with fresh ingredients instead of that awful margarita mix. Because, you’re better than that! My favorite? The Jalapeño Pineapple Margarita – the perfect amount of sweet and spicy! Here are my top 5 favorites. Enjoy!
Saturday July 20th & Sunday July 21st
Radegast Hall & Biergarten
113 North 3rd Street
Brooklyn, NY 11211
The Radegast Hall & Biergarten will be hosting a Game of Thrones Brunch this weekend – An immersive medieval banquet where you can eat alongside knights, wenches, lords and lasses. There will be a brunch buffet as well as an open bar. The open bar consists of 2 hour unlimited beer, wine, Mimosas, and Bloody Marys. There is also a dinner package serving a buffet dinner and the option to purchase an alcohol package that consists of beer, wine, and one cocktail. Although, it’s not required, you should definitely show up in your best medieval costume. There will be music, dancing, and a lot of ale drinking.
It’s National Daiquiri Day!
If you have been smashing Daiquiris at your local beach bar, you are probably used to the popular frozen cocktail mixed with limeades, sweeteners, and other mixers. A refreshing cocktail, packed with sugar that is NOT a true Daiquiri. The Classic Daiquiri is actually a simple rum-based cocktail that has been altered in so many ways over the past years that most people don’t even know what the true recipe actually contains – rum, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup.
The Corona Refresca has been a game changer for me this summer because no matter where I go, it’s all I ask for! I typically lean towards Session IPAs or WitBiers, but this summer, the Refresca is my drink of choice. You can pick them up in any liquor store and also at the bar!
