Road trip this summer? Sponsored
by Best Western Simultaneously coy
and assertive, this drink from
Duggan McDonnell of San Francisco's
Cantina is well balanced yet boldly
flavored. It's great made to order
but would do equally well as a
punch at your next party. What to
buy: Velvet Falernum is a curious
liqueur that many bars mix into
drinks for an unexpected kick. Or
you can try making your own: We
think this recipe is a great
stand-in. If you've made your own
ginger beer (and we think you
should), then go ahead and use it
here. Otherwise, look for a ginger
beer that suits your taste. We
prefer those with a nice note of
sweet and a good kick of ginger,
like Regatta.
