"Head to Navy Yard’s waterfront nook to check out its Swinging Bells Light Yards installation, then flock to one of many nearby bars and restaurants to sip a holiday cocktail recently featured in a friendly neighborhood competition. That includes District Winery’s tequila-spiced concoction served in a reindeer-decorated glass (the crowned winner); Trouble Bird’s pumpkin spice whiskey cocktail; and Agua 301’s spicy pomegranate paloma in a snowman mug. The DIY holiday bar crawl also includes featured drinks at La Famosa, Shilling Canning Company, and Bluejacket, all offered in festive glassware." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Kalina Newman
