"Bernabe’s West 65th cocktail is a tribute to his childhood memories, featuring a unique infusion of candy-coated peanuts in Great Jones Bourbon and Rye, combined with sweet vermouth and Benedictine. “Among the many experiences that shaped my love for the city, nothing stands out quite like the aroma of candied peanuts wafting from the vibrant pushcarts that lined the sidewalks,” Bernabe says. “As I walked through the streets, the sweet, caramelized scent would envelop me, mingling with the city’s electric energy.”" - Julia Gómez Kramer
