The Continental is one of our favorite spots downtown, whether it’s for a date night, a quick business lunch or meeting friends for happy hour. Their artfully executed craft cocktails are always on point, and this summer, a few Continental mixologists have concocted their own refreshing libations that you’re going to want to try (and then try again). Here, bar manager Barry Larkin shares the details and inspiration behind each of them.
“A vodka buck is synonymous with the Moscow mule, a drink made with vodka, ginger beer and lime in a copper mug. I decided to infuse Banyan Reserve vodka with blueberries and sage for several days and make a Moscow mule with it. I called it My Blueberry Buck because I see a lot of mules out there and wanted to separate my drink and its name from all the others.”
