Winter Cocktails in D.C. to Get Cozy With
Co-owners and bartenders Pedro Tobar and Daniel Gonzalez have come up with holiday cocktails that fit into their nostalgia-themed menu, combining all of the owners’ cultural backgrounds into two delicious drinks. The Tres Triste Tigres is based on three milk-based drinks from the Dominican Republic (morrir soñando), Taiwan (milk tea), and El Salvador (cevada fresco). The creamy drink combines dark rum, cevada (barley horchata), spiced barley tea, orange jam, and three different milks: whole milk, condensed milk, and coconut milk. The Atole en Invierno is inspired by Latin American atole (a traditional Mesoamerican drink), mixing dark rum, cashews, Amaro Averna, vanilla, cinnamon, and green cardamom.
