"New Yorkers are obsessed with the fact that our state is the second-largest supplier of apples in the US. For this reason, we’d like to nominate that our state drink be changed from milk to cider—and the funky, foraged stuff at Left Bank is a great example of how good alcoholic apple juice can be. Try a flight at their spacious Catskill taproom, and snack on some crudite, nori french onion dip, and local bread." - clare lagomarsino
