"On the first floor of the Forth hotel in Old Fourth Ward, Bar Premio is a swanky all-day coffee shop and bar featuring an Italian-inspired cocktail menu with drink names like Aperitivo Premio (aperol, gin, dry vermouth, olive, and lemon bitters), Il Tramonto (a spritz with Suze, limoncello, elderflower, and sparkling wine), and Il Bugiardo (a non-alcoholic, caffeinated cocktail with Lyre’s NA coffee liqueur, Lyre’s NA Dark Cane, espresso, and almond). Planning to stick around a while? Head to Il Premio’s piano bar, just a few steps away, for bubbles, wine, and more Italian-inspired cocktails, including the L’amore e La Droga (or “love is the drug”), a spritz made with gin, Cocchi Americano, rosemary, lemon, and ginger. The entire place oozes romance." - Allison Ramirez, Henna Bakshi
