Andaz Fifth Avenue Reveals Cocktail Menu



The Andaz Fifth Avenue hotel bar still doesn't have a name. But it has a drink menu, put together by the estimable crew at Alcemy Consulting. And it has an opening date, Sept. 20. Given the inventive work Alchemy did with the Andaz downtown, I'm looking for for the service here. Below is the cocktail menu.

Some initial impressions: Nice to see Pimm's used in the signature drink, as this stuff doesn't get much play outside the Pimm's Cup (also on the menu; somebody likes Pimm's at Alchemy); interesting choice in using Wisconsin's Death's Door Gin for the Gimlet and Martini; always a pleasure to see Cocchi Americano on the menu; plenty of amari in play, and lots of variety in the vermouth department; the division of drinks into "shaken" and "stirred" both shows an authoritative stand on the cocktails in question, and making choosing a drink easier for the customer.
