"Delicious desserts meet expertly crafted cocktails at Bittersweet, where chef/owner Kim Hammer combines her baking prowess with a predilection for top notch drinks to create Raleigh’s only dessert cocktail bar. Customers can pair seasonal cocktails like the Blair Witch Tea Party (Cardinal barrel-rested gin, black tea, honey, pineapple, lemon, dash of cayenne pepper with a spiced rim) or the 4 a.m. Pancake (bourbon, cream, maple syrup, Crude coffee, and cocoa bitters) with desserts such as pumpkin creme brûlée, apple doughnut cobbler, or the Halloween Threesome, which Hammer describes as “imagine a Reese’s peanut butter cup, Snickers, and a Milky Way have a layered chocolate mousse-baby.”" - Matt Lardie
