Cocktails; we devour the complexity, we relish the vessels they come in. When we sip on a cocktail, we are transported; to the shores of Sayulita, to a bustling Italian square, to a speak-easy in Brooklyn. When you drink a cocktail that leaves alcohol out, the complexity remains, the flavour persists, and the pleasure evolves.
