"Inside Brookline’s longstanding tapas restaurant Taberna de Haro is Straight Law, a top-notch cocktail bar focusing on gin and sherry. It takes its name from the Straight Law cocktail, a classic from the 1930 Savoy Cocktail Book made with two parts dry Manzanilla sherry and one part Plymouth Gin. Naturally this is the first drink on Staight Law’s menu. And though it drinks like a martini, the two-to-one ratio of sherry to gin means that it’s a lower-ABV cocktail. “So you can have one and still have wine with dinner,” says owner Deborah Hansen." - Katie Faust Stryjewski
