COCOA-CURRANT COCKTAIL



Cocoa-Currant Cocktail image

Arrows Restaurant in Ogunquit, Me., had a request for a signature wedding cocktail utilizing cocoa powder. The bartender devised one in which gin is shaken with red currant sorbet and cocoa-infused simple syrup, then served in a glass rimmed with cocoa powder. It's a lively, complex drink - a far cry from the weak gin-and-tonics that once defined wedding reception drinking.

MULLED MANHATTAN



Mulled Manhattan image

This classic grape-and-grain mixture came to us from Christopher Tunnah, the general manager and beverage director at the Bedford Post in Bedford, N.Y. It's as jolly and red as a Santa suit, and it derives its Dickensian tang from the nutmeg hints in Angostura bitters and the clove-studded orange flavors of orange bitters. Craving seconds is easy.

2 ounces bourbon
