Featured Cocktails of the Month: The Trinidad Sour by Jace Sheehan at Wink & Nod South End Boston and A Perfect Negroni by Jeremy Oertel at Death & Company NYC

A few weeks ago at Wink & Nod in the South End of Boston, I enjoyed the most spiced drink, yet one I could wholly appreciate-the color, texture and its rich, luscious frothy cap. 

It was sexy-presented in a coupe, my all time favorite seductive cocktail glass.  
Double shaken to silky perfection, this botanical and boozy-forward cocktail surprised me giving all of the baking spices one could imagine and taste.  

Before knowing the ingredients (especially the main one), I picked up cardamom, clove, cinnamon, tarragon, orange peel, and much more.  

The actual recipe (by Guiseppe Gonzalez of PDT) was made by Jace Sheehan with love:

Trinidad Sour 

1.5 oz Angostura Bitters
1.5 oz Orgeat
3/4 oz Lime
1/2 oz Bourbon or Rye




During my last visit to NYC, Death & Company was on my list of places to get an after dinner libation on night.

Jeremy Oertel made a perfect Old Tom Negroni for me. Death & Co is a sexy, dark spot with hardworking, focused folks behind the stick. 

The patrons are diverse in age and style. The bartenders serious about their craft, yet sociable. The door attendant checks for a spot specifically for you and your guest(s) before ushering you in.
