Don’t let the name deceive you, this short drink packs a serious punch.

The type of beverage you immediately get smitten with, as the title implies.
2. Dirty Flirt
This rust-colored aperitif-spirit hybrid follows through on its double-entendre name with an equally raucous, tongue-in-cheek cocktail. Mixing gin with triple sec, muddled berries, and a touch of chili for that surprise kick, the Dirty Flirt is not for the weak-willed. It’s cheeky, fiery, and a little bit dangerous—just like those who prefer their beverage to be as bold and fun as they.

Hankey Pankey combines gin, sweet vermouth, and just the right amount of Fernet-Branca for a rich herbal punch. It’s quite riveting, smart, brawny, dramatic, and lingers a long time on the palate. Perfect for more mature sippers looking for complexity, richness, and a dash of mischief in their tumbler.
7. Bronx
Inspired by one of New York’s five boroughs, the Bronx cocktail is a classic blend of gin, dry and sweet vermouth, and fresh-squeezed orange juice. It’s bright and refreshing, citrussy and herbal, and kind of like a cross between a Martini and a Screwdriver. A refined option for citrus lovers that prefer more traditional flavors and still want a juicy kick.
8. Gin & Sin
As the name implies, this cocktail is an extravagant combination of gin, grenadine, and lemon juice, plus a sprinkle of bitters. Gin and Sin is beautifully balanced as well as refreshing and rich in flavor. It works a lot with opposites. Sugar to sour, soft gin to cutting lemon, which ends up giving it a lot of harmony and interesting punch, making it the most balanced and bold cocktail on the menu.
9. Basil Smash
This Basil Smash is a perfect way to welcome in the summer! A contemporary classic, the Basil Smash is a green, grassy, herbaceous drink that’s every bit as fun to look at as it is to sip. Muddled basil, gin, lemon juice, and a dash of simple syrup blend for a drink that tastes as fresh as a garden with a crisp finish. It’s stately, sophisticated, aromatic, and just perfect for anyone who loves fresh herbs and effortless beauty in a glass.
