Delaware boasts a variety of cocktail bars and breweries that provide drinks inspired by the autumn season.

Here are some recipes to experiment with at home, along with Halloween-themed brews to seek out in Delaware.

Get ready for some delightful Halloween and fall-inspired cocktail recipes that you can try out this season. Additionally, there are options to adjust the recipes for those under 21 or for guests who prefer non-alcoholic drinks.

Ingredients you’ll need:

Honey

Brown sugar

Pumpkin puree

Lemon juice

Bourbon

Ginger Beer

Lemon Twist

Begin by preparing a rim for your glass using honey and brown sugar. Then, mix together the pumpkin puree, lemon juice, bourbon, and ginger beer in the glass, finishing it off with a twist of lemon. If you prefer a non-alcoholic drink, you can replace the bourbon with orange juice or ginger ale.

If you have a bit of time and want to wow your guests at a Halloween gathering, consider making these fun Jell-O shots. They feature layered colors reminiscent of Halloween and can be made with your choice of vodka or left alcohol-free.

Essential Ingredients:

Packets of gelatin

Jell-O flavors: grape, peach, and melon

Vodka

Sweetened condensed milk

Begin by dissolving the gelatin packets in a saucepan over low heat. While this is happening, prepare the Jell-O flavors of grape, peach, and melon separately, adding vodka to each mixture if desired. For the white layer, combine a cup of the gelatin mixture with the sweetened condensed milk and set it aside. Then, stir half a cup of the gelatin mixture into each of the colored Jell-O vodka mixtures.

Once everything is ready, add one teaspoon of the colored Jell-O to each cup placed in a chilled mini muffin pan. Afterward, put the pan in the freezer for about three minutes until the mixture solidifies. Afterwards, take the pan out and add one teaspoon of the sweetened condensed milk, then return it to the freezer for another three minutes. Repeat this layering process until all colors and mixtures have been used, and finally place it back in the freezer to let them set thoroughly.

Following the devastating fire that ravaged much of Cosse’s Place in May 2023, owner Mike Cosse has reopened the beloved popular New Orleans style restaurant, now better and larger than ever, located at 3601 Highway 90 in Pace.

Mike marked this occasion with a “soft” opening attended by friends and family, which quickly attracted numerous customers who have continued to come in ever since. It’s clear that the community had been longing for its return.

“People across the country have a deep appreciation for New Orleans and Cajun cuisine. Here, we have many new residents from Louisiana, particularly after Hurricane Katrina… Everyone loves this type of food,” he expressed. “It is traditional.”

Rising from the ashes: Cosse’s Place is set to reopen after the tragic fire, but not in the location you might expect

Die-hard fans of Cosse’s Place will be pleased to find their beloved favorites on the menu at the new location, along with some thrilling new offerings, including the addition of a liquor license.

“More seats, liquor, and we still have the best oysters around,” Cosse remarked on Thursday while describing the revamped restaurant.

Now, guests can enjoy a Bayou Martini alongside their oysters on the half shell, or indulge in a Bloody Mary during weekend brunch.

Cosse’s Place will be serving lunch and dinner every day of the week, with a selection of brunch items available on Saturdays and Sundays.

The ambiance of the restaurant complements its Louisiana-inspired dishes, featuring a collection of unique Louisiana artifacts curated by Cosse throughout the space. Vintage posters from previous New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festivals adorn the walls of what is known as the restaurant’s lantern-lit “Jazz Hall,” while New Orleans Saints jerseys are proudly displayed next to Cosse’s custom oyster bar.

A standout feature of the establishment is the charming wrap-around porch, which provides a lovely outdoor dining experience on pleasant evenings.

Whatever you choose from the menu, the restaurant prioritizes fresh ingredients and homemade recipes.

“We do everything fresh,” Cosse commented. “We operate as a 100% scratch kitchen. Everything is prepared in-house, down to our soups, sauces, salad dressings, and seasoning blends.”

The eatery serves up authentic Louisiana cuisine that feels like home.

“Cooking has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. It’s simply a way of life here in Louisiana,” remarked Cosse.

Fried gumbo: Golden, crispy gumbo balls featuring a delightful crunch on the outside, packed with traditional gumbo ingredients within. ($15)

Coconut water is a delicious and nutritious alternative to plain water, offering a burst of flavor while remaining a healthy choice. Comprised of 94% water and containing minimal fat, it boasts an impressive array of electrolytes like potassium, calcium, and magnesium. With all these benefits, why not elevate your drink experience? Incorporating coconut water into your cocktails is a superb way to add excitement.

Bartenders often have specific preferences regarding the water they choose for their cocktails. From hard to soft water and the purity of the ice, every detail matters as they seek to refine their craft. Adding coconut water not only enhances the overall taste but also contributes to the cocktail’s dilution, giving you a game-changing approach to creating excellent drinks.

We had the opportunity to converse with Channing Centeno, a talented Filipino bartender and sommelier with Vita Coco. He shared valuable insights on how to best utilize coconut water in cocktails, along with contributions from other cocktail and coconut water professionals such as Bridget Albert from Southern Glazer’s Wine and Spirits, Jacoby Morciglio, bar manager at Adrift Tiki Bar, and Lindsey Neumayer, who runs the food blog A Recipe For Fun.

Coconut water is packed with essential vitamins and nutrients that help keep you hydrated, particularly crucial when you consume alcohol. Enriched with potassium and vitamin C, among others, coconut water serves as an excellent substitute for bar mixers for cocktails. By providing hydration, cocktails made with coconut water may lead to a reduced risk of experiencing a hangover the next day.

Many of the top coconut water brands feature products with minimal to no added sugars. Bridget Albert, a mixologist at Southern Glazer’s Wine and Spirits, explains that this low sugar content keeps coconut water lower in calories compared to sugary cocktail mixers. For instance, Vita Coco contains less than 1% sugar, 2% sodium, and 4% carbohydrates while boasting 10% potassium and 40% vitamin C. According to Jacoby Morciglio, it’s quite easy to find a quality coconut water brand that has very little sugar and no unnecessary carbonation, and switching to such a choice can enhance your drinking experience.

This article will delve into the effective use of coconut water in cocktails, though Albert points out that it can also be a great ingredient in mocktails for improved hydration. While alcohol naturally leads to dehydration, coconut water can still play a supportive role in maintaining hydration. If you’re opting for a non-alcoholic beverage, the natural electrolytes found in coconut water, such as sodium, will help keep you hydrated throughout the evening.

Have you ever been curious about the reason behind a bartender shaking or stirring your drink before serving it to you? Beyond offering a refreshing chill, the act of shaking and stirring cocktails with ice helps dilute the drink, making it more enjoyable with a balanced flavor profile, as noted by Channing Centeno. Centeno suggests that cocktails should ideally have a dilution rate of about 20%; without this, drinks may be overly sweet or overly sour. Diluting cocktails tempers the flavors, and incorporating coconut water can enhance both this process and the overall drink experience.

The taste of coconut water is naturally sweet with a nutty undertone, complemented by a touch of tropical essence. It offers a refreshing quality, making it an excellent addition to cocktails without the need for shaking. Next time you’re contemplating a shaken cocktail, consider adding a splash or two of coconut water instead. The flavors will harmonize beautifully, resulting in a smooth, easy-to-drink cocktail that’s both delightful and invigorating.

This technique is akin to making coffee or orange juice ice cubes to prevent dilution in your drinks. Utilizing coconut water for your ice cubes is an excellent method to dilute your cocktail while infusing it with flavor. These coconut water ice cubes can be used for shaking, stirring, or simply poured over with your spirit of choice. Regardless of your approach, coconut water ice cubes will undoubtedly enhance your drink compared to standard ice cubes.

Channing Centeno shares, “Shaking a margarita, gimlet, or any sour-style drink with coconut water ice introduces wonderfully tropical and refreshing elements to any cocktail.” This stands in contrast to regular ice cubes, which tend to dilute drinks more than needed. Since coconut water ice cubes don’t contain artificial sweeteners, they won’t make your drink taste overly sweet or syrupy. Additionally, you can get creative by adding fruits like pineapple or papaya to the ice cube tray before freezing to create distinctive coconut ice cubes tailored to your cocktail.

As an alternative, consider using fruit-flavored coconut water. Brands like Vita Coco offer a peach mango flavor, while Goya has a guava option, among others. Centeno emphasizes that coconut water ice cubes also pair wonderfully with whiskey or dark rum, making them a perfect choice for a smooth nightcap.

Espresso martinis are currently trending, and what could be better than crafting a distinctive variant by adding coconut water? Channing Centeno suggests using coconut water as the foundation for your cold brew, which can then be transformed into an espresso martini. If you’re unable to access espresso at home, cold brew concentrate can serve as a suitable substitute.

To create this, steep your chosen coffee grounds in water using a 1-to-4 ratio (in ounces). Instead of standard water, opt for coconut water to infuse a sweet, nutty taste into your cold brew concentrate, which helps mitigate the bitterness often found in espresso martinis. This technique can similarly be applied to iced tea.

Steep your tea leaves or bags in coconut water instead of regular water, and you can incorporate this refined iced tea blend into your upcoming Arnold Palmer — just add lemonade. If you prefer to add some spirits, bourbon or whiskey would pair well with the coconut water flavors. To merge a few of these ideas, consider adding coconut water ice cubes to the cocktail to enhance the taste experience. However, it’s essential to be cautious with the amount of coconut water used; as Jacoby Morciglio points out, “Excess coconut water can be quite dangerous with its high level of potassium.”

If you are open to the idea of losing a bit of fizz, substituting coconut water for soda water in cocktails is an excellent method to elevate your drink. This substitution works particularly well for tropical beverages, such as mojitos and piña coladas. Mojitos are usually crafted with mint, white rum, lime juice, simple syrup, and club soda, but according to Bridget Albert, you can enhance a mojito’s tropical essence by using coconut water instead of club soda.

A piña colada is a delightful drink that often comes together by mixing club soda with cream of coconut, crushed pineapple, and pineapple juice. If you enjoy the taste of coconut, a piña colada is an excellent choice for incorporating coconut water to enhance those flavors. For an even richer coconut experience, consider using coconut water ice cubes in a frozen piña colada before blending.

For those looking to craft non-alcoholic cocktails, substituting soda water with coconut water is a fantastic alternative that promotes hydration. Mocktails, being alcohol-free, benefit from the added electrolytes found in coconut water, according to Jacoby Morciglio, which enhances both hydration and flavor. “The coconut water brings a depth that most non-alcoholic drinks lack,” Morciglio adds.

Coconut water is incredibly versatile and pairs well with various ingredients, yet it’s wise to keep cocktail recipes uncomplicated when using it. The appeal of coconut water lies in its purity, health benefits, and robust flavor compared to other mixers; too many ingredients can dilute its essence.

For a straightforward yet effective combination, Jacoby Morciglio suggests enjoying scotch with coconut water as a Caribbean classic. “This experience was astonishing,” Morciglio shared. “The slightly salty, refreshing nature of coconut water enhances the smoky notes of the scotch.” Additionally, a team member created a non-alcoholic Blue Hawaiian with coconut water, which Morciglio believes added significant depth and flavor to this tropical classic.

Lindsey Neumayer emphasizes simplicity when it comes to cocktails, especially with coconut water. She states, “When all else fails, you can never go wrong with coconut water, lime juice, and your rum of choice for a refreshing cocktail that’ll put you in a Caribbean vacation state of mind.” Coconut water is versatile, complementing various fruity flavors and pairing beautifully with dark, distilled spirits such as rum and scotch.

When hosting events, the chaos of creating personalized cocktails for each guest can be overwhelming. This is where freezer door drinks come in handy. These are large-batch cocktails typically stored in their original liquor bottles. For example, if you’re preparing freezer door margaritas, mix around 750 milliliters of margarita mix and pour it into an empty tequila bottle, leaving it in the fridge for self-service by your guests.

Adding coconut water to your freezer door cocktails is an excellent way to achieve the right dilution without the need to shake each drink separately. Jacoby Morciglio notes, “Because of its high water content, we can play around with the substitution of water…. We can dilute [cocktail mixtures] down with coconut water instead to balance the drink and add a unique twist.” Morciglio suggests using coconut water in freezer door martinis, which consist of water, dry vermouth, and gin—or vodka if you prefer.

Almost any cocktail can transform into a freezer door cocktail. By selecting a high-proof alcohol and limiting the amount of mixers, you can ensure a steady supply of delicious cocktails at your next gathering. Incorporating coconut water allows for fewer mixers, as it brings its own sweet, nutty flavor profile to the drink.

Just like any other product, it’s important to be cautious about preservatives and excessive added ingredients when it comes to coconut water. Many consumers appreciate coconut water for its natural qualities, so opting for brands that maintain this authenticity is recommended. Lindsey Neumayer points out that while canned coconut water tends to be more affordable, refrigerated coconut water is typically the better choice.

“Generally speaking, coconut waters that require refrigeration tend to be less processed and contain fewer preservatives, resulting in a cleaner and purer flavor,” Neumayer explains. Furthermore, it’s crucial to always read the ingredients list on the coconut water you buy to identify any added preservatives or sugars, as these can negatively impact the taste of your cocktails.

Channing Centeno from Vita Coco claims that the best source of coconut water is fresh coconuts from local growers, a sentiment echoed by Jacoby Morciglio. Morciglio specifically recommends Thai coconuts, although both agree that fresh options can be challenging to find. When fresh coconuts are unavailable, Morciglio and his team typically opt for Vita Coco. No matter which coconut water brand you decide on, Centeno suggests choosing a shelf-stable coconut water for convenience, available in boxed, bottled, or canned formats.

Even though coconut water is a versatile ingredient for cocktails, some drinks are not well-suited for its inclusion, according to experts. Lindsey Neumayer states that she “wouldn’t recommend using coconut water in cocktails served hot, or those featuring strong savory or overly bitter notes, as its delicate flavor could be easily overshadowed.” Therefore, it may be wise to refrain from adding coconut water to boozy hot chocolate, spiked apple cider, or other typically warm beverages.

Bridget Albert highlights that while hot drinks are a popular choice, some cocktails already possess unique flavors that could be overwhelmed by the inclusion of coconut water. A perfect illustration of this is the Negroni; Albert points out that the coconut water might not harmonize well with its flavors. The Negroni combines gin, vermouth, and Campari, resulting in a flavor profile that would clash with the distinctive nutty and tropical notes of coconut water.

To best incorporate coconut water, it’s advisable to pair it with flavors that complement and enhance its taste, rather than opting for more bitter ingredients that may create discord. Channing Centeno, a sommelier from Vita Coco, suggests cocktails such as a mango daiquiri, pineapple-infused beverages, and a spiced old fashioned. By integrating coconut water with fruity and tropical elements, or with spirits like whiskey, scotch, or rum, you can truly elevate your cocktail experience.

Social media often buzzes with new wellness trends, and the current hot topic is the health benefits of cortisol cocktails.

This interesting blend doesn’t actually include alcohol but is made up of a variety of minerals and vitamins. Many influencers recommend this drink as an effective solution for issues ranging from fatigue to stress relief.

Recently, searches for “cortisol detox drink” have jumped by 277% in just one month, and TikTok videos that demonstrate how to make these cortisol cocktails have accumulated over 870,000 views, indicating a growing curiosity in using this mix to manage cortisol levels.

While it’s tempting to join the trend, it’s worth questioning whether these cocktails can truly regulate hormones and mitigate stress, or if we should approach them with a degree of skepticism.

Cortisol, most commonly known as the stress hormone, is produced and regulated in adrenal glands located near the top of the kidneys. These glands affect both the central nervous system and the endocrine system.

“Cortisol is your body’s primary stress hormone, and it’s essential for many functions—regulating blood sugar, inflammation, and even your sleep cycle,” explains Nutrition expert Kyle Crowley at Protein Works.

Crowley says cortisol is not the villain it’s made out to be.

“The problem is that in our high-stress world, cortisol levels can stay elevated for too long, leading to issues like fatigue, weight gain, and sleep disruption,” he explains.

“However, the increase in wellness trends focused on cortisol has convinced many individuals that they continually deal with cortisol imbalances. In most cases, cortisol is merely performing its natural functions. It’s actually our lifestyle choices—like inadequate sleep, excessive work, and ongoing stress—that cause cortisol levels to remain high unnecessarily.”

Cortisol cocktails, typically composed of ingredients such as orange juice, coconut water, sea salt, and occasionally cream of tartar or magnesium, are marketed as a natural method for restoring the body’s electrolytes and enhancing adrenal health.

Proponents of the cocktail suggest that the vitamin C in orange juice, along with the sodium in sea salt, and the potassium found in coconut water and cream of tartar, help rejuvenate the adrenal glands.

While Crowley remains cautious about labeling it as a panacea, he recognizes some legitimate benefits from its core components:

Vitamin C from orange juice: Orange juice is packed with vitamin C, crucial for boosting the immune system and enhancing the body’s stress management capabilities. “Vitamin C is vital for the functioning of adrenal glands, which have high concentrations of this vitamin,” Crowley notes. “It helps in the regulation of cortisol production.”

Sodium from sea salt: Sodium is essential in maintaining the balance of electrolytes, necessary for proper adrenal function. “Chronic stress or fatigue can lead to the loss of vital electrolytes,” Crowley states. “Sea salt supplies the sodium needed to maintain fluid balance and replenish electrolyte levels in the body.”

Potassium from coconut water and cream of tartar: Coconut water is a natural source of potassium, crucial for balancing sodium levels in the body and supporting muscle function and energy. “Cream of tartar, often used in cortisol cocktails, provides an additional source of potassium, essential for electrolyte balance,” Crowley mentions.

While Crowley mentions that the drink is harmless, he also points out a significant problem with trends like cortisol cocktails—the perception of them as immediate solutions.

“The ingredients are generally healthy and can certainly offer a refreshing pick-me-up,” he explains. “But to believe that this drink will single-handedly restore adrenal health or drastically reduce stress is missing the bigger picture.

“We seem to live in a world where people want fast solutions to complex issues,” Crowley continues. “But stress, and how it impacts our cortisol levels, can’t be fixed with a single drink or supplement.”

Crowley says prioritising quality sleep, practising mindfulness, and eating a nutrient-dense diet are what will truly balance your hormones and lower cortisol levels over time.

“You don’t need a special mocktail for this,” he explains. “Simply eating a variety of fruits, vegetables, and staying hydrated throughout the day will provide the same nutrients, often in better balance.”

Cortisol cocktails may be a fun, nutrient-packed drink, but they should be viewed as part of a bigger picture, not a cure-all.

Instead Crowley advises a multi-faceted approach to managing stress and hormone health:

Sleep. Sleep is one of the most powerful tools for regulating cortisol. “When you’re sleep-deprived, your cortisol levels remain elevated, which can lead to a host of issues, including increased stress and difficulty maintaining a healthy weight,” Crowley explains.

Exercise. Regular exercise is a great way to manage stress, but Crowley says balance is key. “Over-exercising can actually spike cortisol levels, so it’s important to mix in lower-intensity activities like walking or yoga to keep cortisol in check,” he explains.

Balanced diet. Crowley emphasizes the importance of consuming fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats, outlining that these food groups provide essential nutrients necessary for stress management and maintaining the health of your adrenal glands.

Stress management. According to Crowley, engaging in mindfulness practices such as meditation or deep breathing exercises can effectively reduce cortisol levels. He notes, “It’s not always about doing more; sometimes, it’s about slowing down and allowing your body to reset.”

Consistency. Crowley asserts that effective cortisol management relies on regularity rather than temporary solutions. “It’s easy to get caught up in wellness trends, but real change comes from daily habits that support your body holistically,” he states.

“A cortisol cocktail won’t fix everything. It’s your long-term commitment to reducing stress, getting good sleep, and nourishing your body that will make the difference,” Crowley concludes.

As always, if you’re experiencing symptoms such as chronic stress, fatigue, or significant changes in your body, seeking professional help is crucial.

“A healthcare provider can offer personalised recommendations based on your unique health needs and help address any underlying issues,” Crowley adds. “Always prioritise medical advice over social media trends to ensure a safe and effective approach to health.”

Highclere Castle’s own gin brand was celebrated at a special evening party at the home of Downton Abbey

Highclere Castle Gin

In the home of fictional Downton Abbey during the height of the COVID pandemic, the real lady of the house enjoyed sharing a new concept: Virtual cocktail hour with tens of thousands of online guests.

On Sept. 19, as the sun set on a late summer day, Lady Carnarvon — or ‘Lady C’ as her staff affectionately calls her — and her husband Lord Carnarvon hosted guests at the magnificent home, which doubles as the TV location.

Highclere House, located about 65 miles west of London, serves as the backdrop for the beloved TV and movie series, with a new film scheduled for release next September. On this particular evening, the event showcased the art of hosting in the 17^th century castle as it might have occurred in historical times.

Highclere Castle Gin

Similar to the fictional butler Mr. Carson from Downton Abbey, Highclere’s Luis Coelho adeptly mixed and served cocktails in the grand hall. Highclere Castle’s own gin brand was the highlight of this special evening.

The event featured the “Lavender Lady,” a cocktail composed of Highclere gin, lavender syrup created by Coelho, aquafaba, and lemon juice. Another standout was the “Brit 75,” a concoction of gin infused with butterfly pea blossoms giving it a lilac hue, mixed with lemon juice and sparkling wine, naturally sourced from Highclere.

Also on the drink menu was a classic gin and tonic with a signature sprig of rosemary, and a Negroni.

A post shared by Highclere Castle (@highclere_castle)

“A few years ago, 80,000 people watched us drink cocktails, getting dressed up to join us online,” Lady Carnarvon said proudly. “There are around 80 here today.”

Since those virtual parties, the gin brand has thrived in the niche gin market, using botanicals from the orangery at the stately home’s garden, or tapping into history to create new versions.

In the library of the expansive estate with over 250 rooms, family photos and portraits are comfortably displayed, including those of the late Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, showcasing their connections with the British royal lineage (Lord Carnarvon was one of Queen Elizabeth’s godsons).

Accompanied by nostalgic tunes from the post-Second World War era, Brandyn Shaw and his orchestra delivered a performance at the end of the library.

As he surveyed the vast hall, Lord Carnarvon remarked to his visitors, “My ancestors were renowned hosts. Imagine the lavish gatherings the 5^th Earl would have thrown! No doubt, gin cocktails were in abundance.”

Highclere Castle Gin

The castle has been a focal point for royalty, politicians, literary and musical icons. Yet, it gained worldwide recognition through a television series, as seen in various rooms. Portraits and scenes from Downton Abbey featuring Maggie Smith, Hugh Bonneville, Elizabeth McGovern, and Michelle Dockery are displayed on easels in the library, drawing room, and hallway, showing visitors the settings of the popular drama.

Like countless fans, Lady C is eagerly awaiting to see how the narrative unfolds.

While libations can lead to more indulgent spending, Nordstrom is serving up a new spin on its cocktails-infused concept. Thanks to a collaboration with the team behind the New York Cocktail Company and the Greenwich Village café Dante, Nordstrom NYC’s men’s store has debuted a speakeasy-inspired bar in the Clubhouse.

The pop-up is an extension of the Nordstrom and Dante partnership highlighted in the “Nordstrom for Everything New York” campaign, which celebrates Nordstrom as a destination for everything a New Yorker would need. Created by the New York-based agency Mojo Supermarket, the campaign was unveiled May 27. Along with Dante, the ads play up three other New York City destinations — the historic Apollo Theater in Harlem, the Upper West Side restaurant Barney Greengrass and Casa Magazines. The campaign, and the activations, are meant to not only raise awareness for these only-in-New-York businesses but also to drum up interest in the retailer’s flagship at West 57th and Broadway, which opened in October 2019.

The just-opened pop-up has been seeing a good amount of interest in NYCC’s ready-to-serve classic Negronis but browsers or buyers can also can enjoy NYCC’s Mezcalito, chocolate and espresso Negronis. There are also pick-me-ups from Dante like cheese and charcuterie boards, Marcona almonds and marinated olives. Having first welcomed diners in 1915 to its Greenwich Village eatery, Dante is a New York institution.

Linden Pride, owner of Dante and cofounder of NYCC, expressed excitement about the collaboration with Nordstrom. He conveyed via email the natural fit of the partnership, citing Nordstrom’s celebrated status in NYC and beyond. He was enthusiastic about bringing New York Cocktail Company and Dante to Nordstrom, anticipating it to be a delightful addition for those who savor cocktails and Negronis.

The Negroni, consisting of gin, vermouth, and Campari in equal measures, topped the list of the most-sold drinks in 2022. This was highlighted in Drinks International’s 2022 World’s Best-Selling Classic Cocktails list.

At the Nordstrom location, no reservations are necessary to enjoy the 300-square-foot space named New York Cocktail Company Presents Dante. Positioned near the men’s tailoring section, the setup offers a convenient stop. Though the staff’s advice may be free, the Negronis have a cost, ranging from $18 to $20. The Dante bar snacks are also available, priced between $7 and $47, depending on the portion size desired.

The relationship between department stores and alcoholic drinks goes way back. Even during the 1920s Prohibition era, when many liquor providers were shut down and speakeasies emerged, major retailers advertised cocktail shakers and related accessories in newspaper ads.
